Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

Review of Irish Coast Guard Service: Discussion

4:00 pm

Mr. Maurice Mullen:

I responded to that question in full. The first draft they produced was the document that Fisher Associates say they put forward as the challenge document. They made it clear to us at that stage that they were then going to engage with the senior management side and following on from that, they would draw up their definitive views on this. It was not marked "draft" for nothing. It was made very clear to us that this was part and parcel of the deliberative process that Fisher Associates themselves were conducting. That is the fundamental truth. As far as I was concerned, I was less worried about what they did or did not say in respect of that as long as that, by the time they finished the deliberative process, which they were steering, the subject had been totally addressed and Fisher Associates were satisfied and would stand over their final recommendations.
