Apologies have been received from Deputy Haughey. Deputy Howlin would like to make a point.
Business of Joint Committee
I want to make a point on our work programme. The issue many people are focused on is energy supply, particularly in the context of what has happened in Ukraine and our dependence on imported gas. Subject to the committee's agreement, it would be useful to engage and get expert views on the matter. We should at least know what the position is and see if there is anything we can usefully do.
That is a worthwhile suggestion. Is it agreed? Agreed. I thank the Deputy for raising the matter.
