Item No. 2018/214 has been dealt with. Item No. 2018/215 is an email from Mr. Ciaran Delaney about last week's committee meeting. I want to advise members that Mr. Delaney is an extremely active voluntary worker in the House, not a paid worker. He asked me to clarify that and I am happy to do so. Item No. 2018/216, is an email dated 12 February from the Journal Office attaching a Notice of Motion. It is proposed to note the correspondence. Is that agreed? Agreed.

Item No. 2018/217 is an email from Ms M. Daly, Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport regarding COM(2017)548. It is proposed to note that correspondence. Is that agreed? Agreed.

Item No. 2018/218 is an email from the clerk to Mr. Chris Smith regarding a request for a briefing for future meetings of the committee. That was a standard request. We have discussed this item previously and it is proposed to note the correspondence. Is that agreed? Agreed.

Item No. 2018/219 is an email from Deputy Munster regarding the meeting about CIÉ pensions. Deputy Munster is to discuss this.
