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

Mr. Noel Waters:

We have put governance arrangements in place in respect of An Garda Síochána. Perhaps my colleague can speak about those. These are all relatively new things, however. In the late 1990s and early 2000s we were operating in a very different situation. I indicated already that we had four people, who were then inspectors, whose job was to go around Garda stations, courthouses and all the various prisons and report back to us on any issues that might have arisen that gave rise to concerns. There was no audit carried out prior to 2006 in respect of Templemore that we are aware of. We have no knowledge or records in respect of that.
