Are the minutes of the meeting of 2 July 2015 agreed? Agreed. Are there any matters arising from the minutes? Members were circulated yesterday with a briefing note on the non-compliance with procurement rules arising from the Comptroller and Auditor General's audits in 2012 and 2013. We will schedule a meeting with the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform and the Office of Government Procurement in regard to this matter. That will be in September, I presume. Arising from our meeting last week, and I think Deputy Connaughton raised this matter, the Department is meeting that group today.

No. 3A is correspondence from Accounting Officers and-or Ministers. No. 3A.1 is correspondence dated 6 July 2015 received from Health Service Executive. It is a follow up to our Committee of Public Accounts meetingon 23 April 2015. It is to be noted and published.

No. 3A.2 is correspondence dated 7July 2015 received from Mr. Aidan O’Driscoll, Secretary General, Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. That is a follow-up to our Committee of Public Accounts meeting on 18 June 2015. That correspondence is to be noted.
