Can we agree to note the listing of financial statements? Agreed. As usual, the listing of accounts and financial statements will be published as part of our minutes. Is that agreed? Agreed.

The third item of business is correspondence. As previously agreed, items that were not flagged for discussion for this meeting will continue to be dealt with in accordance with the proposed actions that have been circulated, and decisions taken by the committee in relation to correspondence are recorded in the minutes of the committee's meetings and published on the committee's webpage.

The first category of correspondence under which members have flagged items for discussion is: B - correspondence from Accounting Officers or Ministers and follow-up to committee meetings. We have one item held over from last week's meeting. It is No. 1426 B from Mr. David Moloney, Secretary General, Department of Public Expenditure and Reform, dated 31 August 2022 providing information requested by the committee regarding the status of the business case for the relocation of the National Maternity Hospital. We agreed to note and publish this item. Deputy Munster had flagged an interest in this but I do not think she is present. Does any other member wish to come in on it?
