The public business before us comprises the minutes, accounts and financial statements, correspondence, work programme and any other business. We will then go into private session before adjourning. The first item is the minutes of our meeting of 9 December. The minutes were circulated to members. Do any members wish to raise any matters regarding the minutes? No. Are the minutes agreed? Agreed. As usual, the minutes will be published on the committee's web page.

The second item is accounts and financial statements. Four financial statements and accounts were laid before the Dáil between 6 and 10 December 2021. They should be on the screen now. I will ask Mr. McCarthy to address the accounts and financial statements before opening the floor to members.
