That concludes the questions. I thank the witnesses from the Department of Foreign Affairs, including Mr. Conlan and his staff, and the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform for joining us today and for the work done in preparing for this meeting. I also thank the Comptroller and Auditor General, Mr. McCarthy, and his staff for attending and assisting the meeting. I acknowledge that the advance briefing notes were useful.

Is it agreed to request the clerk to seek any follow-up information and carry out any agreed actions arising from the meeting? Agreed. Is it also agreed that we note and publish the opening statements and briefing provided for today's meeting? Agreed.

The Committee on Public Accounts will adjourn until next Thursday, 7 July 2022, when we will engage with the Department of Education.
