Are the draft minutes of the last two meetings agreed? Agreed. We have a request to meet Mr. Greg Pearce, from the shadow treasury of the legislative assembly of New South Wales, to discuss taxation and budget options. There is a curriculum vitae and information attached. Any committee members who are available may chat with him on Wednesday, 9 July. It will not be anything heavy.
Business of Joint Committee.
What does he want to talk about?
He wants to talk about taxation. We will arrange it.
The final item is a suggestion for the next meeting from the work programme — a review of Exchequer spending. We will get some officials from the Department of Finance and the Department of the Taoiseach to come along on Wednesday, 16 July. Is that agreed? Agreed.
The joint committee adjourned at 4.55 p.m. until 2.15 p.m. on Wednesday, 16 July 2008.
