We will hold this over in case anyone wants to examine that correspondence and come back to it next week.
No. 1692 C is a copy of correspondence sent to the office of the Comptroller and Auditor General from an anonymous correspondent, dated 18 October 2018, regarding governance issues, control failures and misuse of public funds and employment matters relating to the last interim chief executive at the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Ireland. The correspondence was not circulated because the anonymous correspondent encloses a private third party email without the permission of the author or the persons named within. I stress that we have only received a copy. I think the matter originally went to the Comptroller and Auditor General. Can we agree not to circulate the item and take no further action because, again, it names other people without their permission? Agreed.
The next items concerns statements and accounts received since our last meeting.
