Can the Department of Finance send us a note on that? I know we are at the end of the road on that matter, it has been running a while and we are all familiar with it. I have covered all the ground the members did not cover earlier.

I thank everybody from the Revenue Commissioners, the Department of Finance and the Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, who were here earlier, for their attendance and for the information provided. I also thank the Comptroller and Auditor General and his staff. It is agreed the clerk will seek any follow-up information and carry out any agreed action from the meeting.

Our next public meeting is next Thursday, 5 December. There will be two sessions. The first session in the morning will be with the National Paediatric Hospital Development Board, the Department of Health, the HSE and Children's Health Ireland and the meeting will be on the 2018 financial statements for the National Paediatric Hospital Development Board.

In the second session we will meet with the HSE and the Department of Health to deal with its accounts for the public services for 2018 and chapter 15 from the Comptroller and Auditor's report, dealing with primary care centres and specific topics we have already indicated we will deal with on the day, such as an update on measures to reduce incidents of clinical negligence that may lead to claims against the State. We covered that in our periodic report this week. We will also have an update on matters related to the oversight of sections 38 and 39 organisations and the practice of issuing advance funding to such organisations. We will also discuss private ambulance contracts and home support services. That is in addition to everything else.
