I thank the Cathaoirleach and, like you, I welcome Mr. Deering and his colleague, Ms Siobhán O'Donoghue, to the committee. I am a new member of this committee so we are just finding our feet in regard to the committee's role and, obviously, the role of the Ombudsman and its work. Do public utilities come under the Ombudsman's remit, such as telecom providers and ESB?
