Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Statement of Strategy 2017: Department of Finance
10:00 am
Mr. Derek Moran:
The critical aspect is that each Department now has to have its own governance framework. It has to look at how it manages the bodies under its aegis. I do not know anything about the Horse and Greyhound Fund. If there are issues there, they will have to be addressed within that context. In terms of the bodies under our aegis, while respecting their independence if they have legal independence, we are trying to ensure to the extent that we can that they are being operated appropriately and that we can have assurance that these sorts of principles are being met.
