I am a relatively new member of the committee and what I have heard this morning is staggeringly unbelievable as regards the level of incompetence with taxpayers' money in the organisation over a period of time. This sum is probably at the lower level in the context of the amount that the Comptroller and Auditor General normally deals with, but there was no control of any description.

Did the Secretary General of the Department at the time make the Minister aware of it?
