Michael Collins (Cork South West, Independent) | Oireachtas source

As I have said to the Minister, the EU Commission has confirmed that it will investigate a second complaint from the West Cork Development Partnership about irregularities in the LAG selection. We are not treating the matter lightly and we need more clear answers as to what happened. I again ask the Minister, as I asked her at the outset, if she will set up an independent investigation into what has gone on in west Cork. It looks as if it was shambles in many more places also, perhaps throughout the State.
