I thank Senator Colette Kelleher for facilitating the commencement of this meeting. I remind members to switch off their mobile phones as they interfere with the recording equipment. Apologies have been received from Senator Niall Ó Donnghaile. I propose that the joint committee go into private session to deal with housekeeping matters. Is that agreed? Agreed.
