Joint Oireachtas Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions

Role and Functions: Pensions Ombudsman

4:55 pm

Mr. Paul Kenny:

The Pensions Authority generally lets us know what has happened as a result of information we conveyed. Very often we know in advance, because the Pensions Authority usually issues a press release when it has conducted a successful prosecution. We find out on the day of the verdict in the District Court that a successful prosecution has been brought. The Pensions Authority generally reports to us on how something has panned out when we refer a case to it. Likewise, we report it to the Pensions Authority if it has referred a matter to our organisation.
