Most would agree the big organisations have a pretty incestuous club and it is very hard to find someone who can take an independent position on most matters in Ireland. Key Capital and PricewaterhouseCoopers are big players with vested interests in many different areas. If in the case of the Comptroller and Auditor General not being given permission by the Attorney General to adopt an oversight role, would the service see merit in some other form of independent oversight in the interests of transparency and accountability?
