Public Accounts Committee

Business of Committee

Chairman: Are the minutes of our meeting of 2 May 2013 agreed? Agreed. No. 2 is matters arising from the minutes. The clerk has circulated a note with proposals for the resumed examination of the report of the Comptroller and Auditor General on the SIPTU national health and local authority levy fund. It is proposed to have a meeting on 20 June about this. Is that agreed? Agreed. Last week we spoke about another matter and decided to invite in other witnesses related to the Dublin Docklands Development Authority. There are other witnesses mentioned in the SIPTU report who are no longer in their jobs, who have perhaps retired or left. The question arises from the first hearing on 20 June if it should be the case that witnesses are identified, such as the people who have been named and associated with this report. There are three in all. Can we write and advise them that it would be of interest to us as members of the Public Accounts Committee that they would be given the opportunity to state their case because we will be speaking about people who are not here? We can send the transcripts later, but we should advise them of our interest in bringing them forward as witnesses.
