Chairman:

This is very high, and it is not acceptable. The clerk to the committee will write on that specific matters seeking information on it.

The next item of correspondence is No. 2649 from Deputy Paschal Donohoe, Minister for Finance and Public Expenditure and Reform, dated 16 December 2019, responding to the recommendations in the periodic report No. 6 of the committee. Deputy Munster has indicated that she wishes to discuss this item and I ask her to be brief as there is a lot of correspondence to be dealt with.
