Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Covid-19 Health Related Issues: Update (2 Mar 2021)

David Cullinane: ...set it out but it was not addressed in his opening statement. There was universal cross-party support for the Minister acting on this and on a Dáil motion that was unopposed that called on him to revert to the March agreement. Will the Minister address in his own time what he should have addressed in his opening statement and set out the position regarding pay and allowances for...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Covid-19 Health Related Issues: Update (2 Mar 2021)

David Cullinane: ...in the business of work. Of course they are working and they are not getting paid. She said that when the Minister was asked at a meeting on 8 February with the same union whether he was going to revert to the March agreement, his answer was "No". Is the Minister's answer still "No"? Is it the case that he will not revert to the March agreement?

Public Accounts Committee: 2018 Financial Statements of the National Transport Authority (10 Oct 2019)

David Cullinane: From a value-for-money perspective, the Department and the NTA could revert with information on how much it costs to employ the 147 or 149 people who are on contract as opposed to the 140 who are directly employed. From a cost-benefit perspective, would it be more expensive or cheaper to have them directly employed rather than contracted? I will put this question to Ms Hanlon and Ms Graham....

Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Hospital Overcrowding (18 Jun 2019)

David Cullinane: ...state of affairs. The issue is not down to the wonderful staff at the hospital but rather to the lack of capacity. Will the Minister of State raise the matter with the Minister for Health and revert to me to indicate when the appointments of the patients who were told to go home will be rescheduled? They should be notified quickly and prioritised. Will additional capacity be...

Public Accounts Committee: 2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 34 - Housing, Planning and Local Government (28 Feb 2019)

David Cullinane: I will revert to this matter but, so that we are clear, is the witness saying that the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform has not yet made a determination on whether the change is in line with requirements under the public spending code? That has not been communicated to his office yet.

Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union (Consequential Provisions) Bill 2019: Second Stage (26 Feb 2019)

David Cullinane: ...spending on public transport? Where are the additional, hard, practical and tangible supports for businesses that need them? The Government is tinkering around the edges in this Bill with grants for research and development for companies. That is reverting to what current state aid rules allow anyway. There are, however, no real practical proposals to give businesses the supports...

Public Accounts Committee: National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: Financial Statements 2017 (31 Jan 2019)

David Cullinane: I will revert to the overall cost. While I think we have arrived at this point with a clear view of what are the costs, it would have been better had we got the breakdown at the very start. I do not understand why it could not have been provided to us. I do not want to be unfair but maybe it was a tactic to not provide it to us so we would spend almost all of the morning trying to get...

2017 Financial Statements - Housing Agency (25 Oct 2018)

David Cullinane: ..., we are making representations for houses that do not exist. We must do it and we go into the local council and meet the housing officers but they say "Sorry, Deputy, but HAP is the only option". We revert to the constituents but they say they cannot find anywhere. Does the Department understand what it is like for people in that situation? Does it understand why we say there is a...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (8 Mar 2018)

David Cullinane: ...the actual position. My second point is that we did a great deal of work on this issue. In fact, we published our own report on the matters relating to the Garda College in Templemore. If one reverts to the internal audit report, the headline issue - leaving aside the salacious stuff and the madness when had the heads of different departments, who almost collapsed before us - there...

David Cullinane: ...review. He also stated that he would expedite that review, that it would be underpinned by an international independent person of standing and have other members as well, and that he would revert to us with a timeframe and clear terms of reference. That has not happened. I do not know whether the Taoiseach has this information at his disposal, but will he confirm when the review will...

Comptroller and Auditor General Special Report 95: Financial Reporting in the Public Sector (6 Jul 2017)

David Cullinane: ...instance followed by the NED. Just because the Government decides that it will rejig Departments should not mean that this sequence should not be followed. I am concerned that we have already reverted back to type and that we are engaged in box-ticking rather than genuine consultation. That is my opinion. Why was there a delay in the SES?

Public Accounts Committee: Dublin Institute of Technology and Cork Institute of Technology: Financial Statements (22 Jun 2017)

David Cullinane: ...is truly independent. That view is shared by some other committee members. There is a practice of outsourcing of governance and oversight and that is not good enough. Mr. Love has said he will revert to the committee with the breakdown. However, I am concerned that that is what I am hearing from him today and it is also my experience from dealing with these matters over recent months...

Vote 31 - Transport, Tourism and Sport (23 Feb 2017)

David Cullinane: The witness might revert to us about that. I wish to deal again with subvention and the Expressway service. I want absolute clarity so I can fully understand the responses given earlier. Has the Department done any analysis of the viability of the overall Expressway service or individual routes?

Public Accounts Committee: Special Report No. 94 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: National Asset Management Agency Sale of Project Eagle (29 Sep 2016)

David Cullinane: ...have concerns over continuing to deal with the three counterparties and would need to consider if the transaction could be progressed without their involvement. The Head of Asset Recovery agreed to revert to PIMCO the next day if possible. We know what the board minutes reflect and we have had a discussion on them, and maybe a disagreement. The conference call on 11 March 2014 is the...

Public Accounts Committee: Work Programme (7 Jul 2016)

David Cullinane: I wish to revert on the procurement issue. I accept the Chairman's statement that the Department of Health will appear before us in the autumn, but it would also be useful to have a comparison with other Departments. If we are discussing 30% non-competitive procurement in a sample in the health service, how does that compare with other Departments? Is it similar, better or worse?
