Public Accounts Committee

Special Report No. 86 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Bord na gCon

11:30 am

Ms Geraldine Larkin:

There are a number of proposals stemming from the strengthening of the board and directors. One of the key recommendations under that broad general category was that board members would no longer act as directors on the local boards of all our stadiums. That proposal is in place so that over the next quarter board members will step back from local boards. That is the first part of that. The Deputy will appreciate that this plan only went in on 10 October. Within the first quarter, the other strengthenings that will happen within the whole governance area include the further training of board members and the executive in board governance. That will also be accompanied by a review of the governance, operation and effectiveness of the board. That is all scheduled to take place. Obviously that work will be tendered to bring in an external person to evaluate it and work with the board. That work is scheduled to be done in quarter 4 or January 2015.
