We can begin in public session. Before going through the business of the committee, I welcome the three new members. They are Deputies Patrick O'Donovan, Gabrielle McFadden and John Perry, who I served with when he was Vice Chairman of this committee during another term. He was also Chairman. I wish all of them well in their work. I extend our thanks to Deputies Kieran O'Donnell and Eoghan Murphy for their contribution to the Committee of Public Accounts. I wish them well with the banking inquiry. I have no doubt the report that this committee finished on the way a banking inquiry should be conducted will be of great assistance to them. At least we have pointed the way for that committee. There is a vacancy for the position of Vice Chairman and I propose that we fill the vacancy at next week's meeting.

Are the minutes of the meeting of 27 November 2014 agreed?
