I would imagine that if we are doing a report on Sport Ireland, because it is a different Department, it will be a report on that hearing. Does anyone else want to come in regarding the work programme? We have a vacancy on 29 June. Here are the options. We previously agreed to defer a meeting with the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment with a focus on the Workplace Relations Commission. The Department is available on 29 June. That is where the vacant slot is. A special report is due from the Comptroller and Auditor General on NAMA's progress in achieving its objectives. It is due to be published soon but we do not yet have a date. The other option is the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board's, IHRB, financial statements 2021 and the issue the Comptroller and Auditor General drew attention to regarding the retirement package for the former CEO. Those are the three options.

We did launch a report on the horse racing industry a number of months ago and the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board has appeared before us on a number of occasions. I am assured there is an issue there. The retirement package is the main issue but is there enough to justify bringing the board before the committee?
