That is to try to get a response for our correspondent. That is perfect.

The next section of our meeting relates to the work programme. A draft work programme document, which is displayed on screen now, has been circulated to members for discussion. On 8 February, we will meet the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission, GSOC, on the 2022 financial statements. Resourcing of GSOC and the timelines for the processing and completion of complaints by GSOC have been flagged as areas of interest by the committee.

We will meet the Department of Justice on 15 February on the 2022 appropriation accounts for Vote 21 – Prisons and Vote 24 – Justice. The resourcing of GSOC and the International Protection Office have been flagged as areas of interest for this meeting.

On 22 February, we will meet the Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, Sport Ireland and representatives of the FAI and the Schoolboys/girls Football Association of Ireland. Last week, it was agreed to request that the chairperson of the audit, risk, compliance and finance committee of the FAI board attend. I propose that we discuss this meeting further in private session. If anybody wants to comment now on a matter that is not sensitive, that is fair enough.
