My mistake. I wondered about that. There is an explanation on the non-competitive procurement of goods and services. We will note that reply.
The next item is correspondence No. 806B received on 11 October 2017 from Ms Joanna Murphy, chief executive officer of ConnectIreland. The correspondence, which relates to the meeting with the IDA on 5 October 2017, states that comments made by Mr Martin Shanahan, CEO of IDA, regarding a job creation target for the Succeed In Ireland initiative were not accurate. We will publish this document and write to the IDA for a detailed response. When we receive the response we will discuss it and how to proceed. It flatly contradicts some of the items the IDA mentioned in the meeting.
