What I suggest is that we ask those questions but I strongly suggest that we put this on to the work programme as well. The Deputy is correct; it will involve other Departments but the key player is the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, so we will request that information.

Moving on to No. 1633B, it is from Mr. Ray Mitchell, assistant national director of the HSE, is dated 20 December 2022 and is providing further information that we requested arising from a meeting with the HSE on 6 October 2022. It is proposed to note and publish this item of the correspondence. Is that agreed? Agreed.

Deputy Munster flagged it but she is not here. Does any member wishes to raise anything? In view of the fact that she is not here and unless there is a compelling reason to hold it back until next week, I suggest that we move ahead. Are members happy to have it disposed of today? Okay, I take that as agreed.

No. 1638B is from Mr. Ken Spratt, Secretary General of the Department of Transport, dated 20 December 2022, providing information the committee requested regarding the DART+ West project from Kilcock to Kildare. It is proposed to note and publish this item of the correspondence. Is that agreed? Agreed.
