Public Accounts Committee

2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed)

9:00 am

Ms Anne Marie McMahon:

Yes. If I can just clarify, the recommendations in the interim audit report are absolutely accepted. This was a situation that, certainly, I inherited in 2011, and that was the belief. I am not saying that was right, but it was the belief. The reality of this situation is that it is extremely unfortunate that these anomalies have arisen in terms of how the money was managed but I suppose the belief was that it was for the entirety of the Garda College experience, if I can put it that way, as opposed to just meals in the restaurant.
