Public Accounts Committee

Report of the Accounts of the Public Services 2015
Chapter 11 - Guardian Ad Litem Service

9:00 am

Dr. Fergal Lynch:

Yes. Just to be clear, there would be two stages. The first stage would be the establishment of a national service provider, which would be appointed by public procurement. Ultimately, the intention is to move to a public body of some sort, be that part of the proposed court system or perhaps an existing body, for example, the Legal Aid Board, though I do not want to pre-empt anything there, or indeed it could be decided that it would be a separate public body.
