Okay. The next item of correspondence is No. 988B from Mr. Martin Shanahan, chief executive of IDA Ireland, dated 20 December, providing information requested by the committee regarding the procurement of ventilators during the pandemic and associated legal costs.

I ask members to bear in mind that any comments that might in any way prejudice the outcome of the legal proceedings or encroach on the functions of the court are to be avoided. Members know the importance of that. It is proposed that we note and publish the correspondence. Is that agreed? Agreed. That matter was flagged by Deputies Munster and Catherine Murphy.
