On foot of that analysis, what measures did the Department put in place to protect and account for the spend of taxpayers’ money on an ongoing basis, regardless of where that money comes from within Government? There are several Departments involved, for example, the Departments of Education and Skills and Social Protection. What mechanism or reporting procedure is in place within CIE, directly to the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport that enables Mr. O'Mahony to say confidently, if he can, that in the taxpayers’ interest he is absolutely happy with how that money is spent?
