I thank the Minister and his officials for attending. Mr. David Smith is very welcome. I thank Deputy Ó Caoláin for attending also. The meeting has been convened to discuss Committee Stage of the Health Service Executive (Financial Matters) Bill 2013. Officials are not allowed to speak at the meeting but they are available to be of assistance to the Minister. If the Minister wishes to make an opening statement, he may do so. If not, I will move to section 1 of the Bill.
