Thank you, Deputy. Your strong views on this matter on behalf of your constituents are duly noted. Is the recommendation of the committee to close this petition agreed? Agreed.

The next petition for consideration is petition No. P00020/17 from Mr. Conor O’Riordan, entitled, Complaint against the Ombudsman. It is proposed to forward a copy of the response from the Office of the Ombudsman to the petitioner and close the petition and to correspond with the Office of the Ombudsman to confirm that the committee is in agreement on the fact that details of the individual complainant are not relevant to the consideration of the petition. Is this agreed? Agreed.
