I want to raise several issues. Obviously, I would have been involved in the very detailed hearings in regard to Templemore going back to 2017, and I think the Committee of Public Accounts did a lot of very good work on that. Once an area ends up being the responsibility of a criminal investigation, obviously the role of the Committee of Public Accounts ends until that is concluded. We all accept that and I certainly would not be straying into the work of another entity that has a significant role. However, we have looked repeatedly for updates over time and this has taken longer than any of us would have liked. The one thing we want is to make sure the areas we were concerned about are fully covered in the report that is going to be done. I am pleased to hear it is coming towards a conclusion. Will the Chairman confirm if the meeting next week is in private or public session?
