Apologies have been received from Deputy Michael D. Higgins, for whom Deputy Stagg will deputise. I remind members and those in the Visitors Gallery to ensure that their mobile phones are switched off completely for the duration of the meeting as they cause interference with the recording equipment in the committee rooms, even if they are on silent mode.
The minutes of the meeting of 31 October have been circulated. Are they agreed? Agreed. There are no matters arising from the minutes.
