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

Moving to correspondence, as previously agreed, items that were not flagged for discussion at this meeting will be dealt with in accordance with the proposed actions that have been circulated. 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 web page.

Five items have been flagged for discussion in public today. The first category under which items have been flagged is category B, correspondence from Accounting Officers and-or Ministers and follow up to committee meetings. No. R2315B is from Mr. Robert Watt, Secretary General of the Department of Health, and is dated 16 January 2024. It provides information requested by the committee in relation to the national children’s hospital. Last week it was agreed to note and publish this item and to defer consideration until this week's meeting. Do members wish to comment on this?
