We note all of these accounts. We will now move on to the work programme. The Dáil is not sitting next week. On 5 November we will meet officials from the Department of Justice and Equality to discuss prisons and the development of prison accommodation in Dublin, under Chapter 9. We will meet representatives from the Office of the Attorney General the following week, then the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions and then the Office of the Chief State Solicitor. We will meet representatives of the Office of Government Procurement on 19 November.

Earlier we discussed arranging a meeting with Waterford IT, the Higher Education Authority and the Department of Education and Skills as well as the need to deal with an outstanding matter relating to Cork Institute of Technology. A meeting can be scheduled for 10 December. I suggest that we invite Waterford IT, the HEA, the Department and Cork IT in on the same day and hold two different sessions so that we can complete our investigations into those matters.
