It is really unsatisfactory , although I realise it was on a different watch. One might argue that the sum of money concerned is modest in the broader scheme of things, but it is not acceptable practice that a mistake is knowingly made that involves a loss of taxpayers' money and I do not see any follow-up or accountability for the person concerned. I guess that people in other parts of FÁS or other parts of the public service would not get a pass if a mistake was knowingly made that incurred a cost.
