We will write to the Minister on that basis. When the reply has been received we will examine the issue in its entirety, bearing in mind that it was been already considered by the previous PAC. I am not familiar enough with the details to draw any conclusion on the matter this morning.

The next item is No. 200C, (i) to (iii). These items can be taken together. They are copies of correspondence regarding directorship at Limerick Greyhound Stadium for the purposes of keeping the committee informed. Is it agreed to note this correspondence? Agreed.

No. 203Ciscorrespondence received from Ms Audrey Keane, Registrar of Aosdána in the Arts Council in reply to correspondence regarding the payment of the Aosdána Cnuas grant. I propose that we now consider this matter closed and we forward this to the individual who wrote to the committee on this matter.Is that agreed? Agreed.

No. 205C (i) and (ii) is correspondence from Mr. Paul Quinn, chief procurement officer, with an overall description of the tender process framework. I thank Mr. Quinn for this information, which we will note. We will also forward a copy of it to the company that raised the matter with us at an earlier meeting.
