The Deputy is happy enough with that.
We will move on then to No. 4, which is the work programme. At our previous meeting on 13 July, we agreed the following engagements, and I will hold members' attention for a few minutes while we go through this. On 28 September, representatives from NAMA will appear before the committee with regard to financial statements 2022 and the Comptroller and Auditor General's special report, No. 116. That is on progress on achieving objectives as at the end of 2021. On 5 October, we will engage with the HSE with regard to financial statements. If there are specific matters members wish to raise at that meeting, as always, they might flag them up fairly soon because 5 October is quite close now. We will meet with RTÉ on 12 October. On 19 October, we will engage with the National Paediatric Hospital Development Board and Children's Health Ireland. Specific areas of interest flagged are issues regarding the operating theatres in the new children's hospital, timelines for commencement and the commissioning period, the level of claims and potential liability, updated budget for the timeline for completion of the national children's hospital and the handover of the new children's hospital to Children's Health Ireland. That is the list at the moment. Are people happy enough with that?
