Apologies have been received from Deputy O'Donnell and Senator Bradford. I understand that Senator Glynn is substituting for Senator Mooney until he arrives. It has been brought to my attention that members' mobile phones are causing serious problems for the broadcasting unit as they interfere with the recording equipment in committee rooms. Accordingly, I ask members to ensure their mobile phones are switched off for the duration of the meeting.
The minutes of the meeting held on 14 February 2006 have been circulated. Are they agreed? Agreed. Are there any matters arising? We have inquired about the leaked interim report from the EU mission observing general elections in Ethiopia and hope to have information about it for the next meeting.
