I look forward to receiving the information on the scheme, to which we can come back at the subsequent meeting.

I note chapter 6.6 of the Comptroller and Auditor General's report on Vote 38 states:

There were eight cases of possible misappropriation of public moneys by employees of an approximate total value of €45,229. Amounts in some cases have not yet been determined.
When did these cases arise? Were there Garda investigations of these misappropriations? Was any of the eight cases linked? What were the outcomes of these cases and how much has been recouped?
