This is a special meeting convened to deal solely with the item on the agenda which relates to matters concerning the Central Remedial Clinic. Deputies Ross and Harris are the lead speakers for today's session. Other members have also indicated. Unless any member wishes to raise an issue, I suggest we proceed to the business of the meeting.
Business of Committee
Chairman, I indicated also.
The HSE is in before us today as well and there is correspondence in the public domain between the HSE and the CRC. Could we request that we would have sight of the documentation?
All relevant documents on either side should be made available to committee members. When the witnesses come in we can ask them for the relevant documentation.
What I am asking is that we would get whatever documentation is available upfront at the start of the meeting.
The following Deputies have indicated - Deputies Dowds, McDonald, O’Donnell, Nash and Connaughton, in that order. No. 3C refers to documents relating to today’s meeting. The only documents are the briefing material and the update on the progress of section 38 agencies. All of them are to be noted and published. We will request further information from the witnesses when they come into the room. We will now invite the witnesses to take their seats.
