That will be included for discussion as part of the work programme at the next meeting. The next item is correspondence No. 826C, dated 10 October 2017, from Professor Gerry Boyle, director of Teagasc, which provides procurement information requested by the committee relating to the Teagasc financial statements for 2016. There were four services mentioned as being non-competitive and Teagasc outlines actions which have been taken to deal with these. We have put that letter up on the screen. Would the Comptroller and Auditor General comment on that because those are the financial statements? He highlighted issues and the committee wrote to Teagasc.
