There are two of note among those that have been presented. One is the Medical Bureau of Road Safety. I will ask the secretariat to correspond with it on that. Do any members wish to come in with questions? Okay. We will follow up on the two late ones, namely, the residential institutions redress special account and the Medical Bureau of Road Safety. That was very late. We will correspond with them and seek an explanation. Can we note and agree the listing of financial accounts and statements? Agreed. As usual, the accounts and financial statements will be published as per the minutes.

No. 3 is correspondence. As previously agreed, items not flagged for discussion at 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 its meetings and published on its web page.

The first category of correspondence under which members have flagged items for discussion is B, which is correspondence from Accounting Officers and Ministers and follow-up to committee meetings. No. R1581B was received from Ms Suzanne Eade, chief executive officer of Horse Racing Ireland, HRI, and is dated 16 November 2022. It provides information requested by the committee arising from the meeting with HRI on 22 September 2022. It includes responses to 11 questions raised by the committee at that meeting and includes a number of accompanying documents. It is proposed to note and publish this item of correspondence. Is that agreed? Agreed. Deputies Catherine Murphy, Carthy and Munster flagged this item for discussion. I call Deputy Murphy.
