We will come to that when we receive a reply, which I presume will not be too long more in coming.
The next item is No. 1891 from the managing director of BT Ireland, who is not available to attend the meeting but will have representatives here on the day, which is fine.
The next item is No. 1894 from an individual, dated 24 January 2019, in regard to information provided by the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment regarding electricity interconnectors. As the correspondent recognises in his email, this is a policy issue and not within the remit of the committee. I propose we forward the item. Members are free to raise the matter outside of the committee if anyone wants to follow it up directly.
The next item is No. 1909 from Deputy Alan Kelly, dated 29 January, requesting that the committee invite the acting chief executive officer, CEO, of the HSE to today’s meeting. Time was tight and this would be minimal notice. We had agreed to have the hospital board, the HSE link person, the Secretary General and others here today.
