With the permission of the Ceann Comhairle, I propose to take questions numbers 49 and 50 together.
There is no change in the position regarding the question of a deputation which was conveyed to the corporation.
Any question of varying the scheme for civic offices is one for decision by the corporation having regard to relevant legal and contractual provisions. It would not be proper for me to prejudice any audit proceedings that might follow such decision, and there are no funds at my disposal that could be committed to such purpose.
