That is okay.

On 10 March we will engage with the HSE on expenditure on mental health services, with a focus on child and adolescent mental health services, CAMHS, expenditure. The HSE's mental health services expenditure for 2020 was just over €1 billion. However, the expenditure is listed at a very high level. With the agreement of the committee, we will request a detailed breakdown of the expenditure as well as the associated governance and oversight arrangements. Is that agreed? Agreed.

At our meeting of 3 February it was agreed we would schedule a meeting with the University of Limerick. While the president of the university is available on 24 March, the chancellor is not, and I am anxious, as I think other members might be, to engage with the latter. We will therefore look to schedule that meeting for a later date on which the chancellor will be available.

I now turn to issues raised publicly in the media regarding the Department of Health and funding matters. Information in this regard was allegedly leaked to the media and there have been some discussions on the matter. Members may wish to come in on this. I will ask the Comptroller and Auditor General to come in first because I know that his office was referred to in some of the newspaper reports and public reports on what have been termed protected disclosures.
