Yes, indeed. That goes without saying. I ask everyone to think about this to see how we are going to get the most rounded and full discussions when we hear from witnesses. We can decide in private session how exactly we are going to lay that out so that we get the maximum effectiveness from it.

We will now move on to talk about the nominations for Leas-Chathaoirleach. As you are aware, a committee may choose to elect a Leas-Chathaoirleach who can perform the duties and exercise the authority of the Cathaoirleach in his or her absence.

I propose requesting nominations for the position of Leas-Chathaoirleach. Members may wish to consult one another and send nominations to the clerk by email by the close of business on 20 May 2025. Ideally, the election of the Leas-Chathaoirleach can take place during the meeting on 22 May 2025. Is that agreed? Agreed. Go raibh maith agaibh.

We will now go into private session to deal with some housekeeping matters.
