Niall Collins (Limerick County, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

Will Dr. Rigney recap on the key findings of his report on executive pay levels, including the key findings and recommendations he made? I have no objection to or issue with transparency. It is important to look at the environment in which we are operating.

We are subject to a high degree of scrutiny and transparency. I despair some mornings when listening to the radio. A few months ago there was a piece on "RTE Investigates" which claimed to reveal the costs of salaries for the Oireachtas. If the researchers had looked at the Oireachtas website, they would have found that information at the click of a button and taxpayers would not have to fund an investigations unit to look into Deputies. Can the witness tell us what his key findings were and what he is recommending, and how those recommendations will impact on the cost of business?
