As we have a quorum, we will commence in public session. I remind members that the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs, Deputy Frances Fitzgerald, will appear before the joint committee this Thursday at 11.30 a.m. Also, I wish to advise members of my intention to move back our meeting time to 10 a.m. following the summer recess. We may meet at that time on a trial basis during the month of July. Is that agreed? Agreed.
Apologies have been received from Deputies Kelleher and Ó Caoláin. I remind members and those in the Visitors Gallery to ensure all mobile phones are switched off for the duration of the meeting as they interfere with the sound recording.
