Public Accounts Committee

Special Report No. 91 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Management of Severance Payments in Public Sector Bodies

1:30 pm

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

We approached it on the basis that we were not identifying individual Departments or public bodies. We made an exception by referring to the Central Bank because a considerable number of these payments were made in respect of that body. We identified them because we felt the system was big enough to ensure the identities of those individuals was not obvious. I would be concerned that if I were to talk about the circumstances of this case in that period, the individual would be identifiable.
