I apologise for the delay in starting the meeting. Another committee met in the room before this meeting, which has resulted in a late start. I thank everyone for attending at such short notice. I remind members and witnesses to turn off their mobile phones as they interfere with the sound system.

It is proposed that the meeting will follow the following agenda. We will start in public session and there will be two separate public sessions. Session A is decarbonising transport, the key role of alternative fuels and technologies, including electric vehicles. That will be followed by a five-minute sos after which we will commence session B, which is the oversight of the Commission for Energy Regulation. That session will also be followed by a five-minute sos and then we will go into private session. On the conclusion of the private session the committee will adjourn until 5 p.m. on Tuesday, 4 July 2017. Is that agreed? Agreed.
