Are the minutes of the meeting of 1 May 2014 agreed? Agreed.

Next are matters arising from the minutes. The committee has been circulated with a draft of the application of the committee for compellability in the context of our ongoing examination of the spend of public funds of Rehab. The application will now be submitted to the Committee on Procedure and Privileges. Is that agreed? Agreed.

No. 3 is correspondence received since our meeting on Thursday, 1 May 2014. No. 3A is correspondence from Accounting Officers and Ministers. No. 3A.1 is correspondence received from Patrick Neary, David Doyle, Mr. Hurley and Mr.Cardiff regarding bank stabilisation measures. These are to be noted and published. The invitation offered to these four senior officials arose from the interim Committee of Public Accounts report on bank stabilisation published last year. The outstanding issues will now fall to be dealt with by the upcoming banking inquiry. No. 3A.2 is correspondence dated 30 April 2014 from the Secretary General of the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources.
