Clearly, they are not being followed and they are not sufficient. If €13,000 can be thrown away on ice sculptures for a party to acknowledge the greatness of someone, when that person was himself the person acknowledging and saying it is okay to spend the money, I am saying to Mr. Ó Foghlú quite respectfully that it is wrong. For 12 minutes some other day, those in the Department might sit down, put their heads together and issue a circular stating that those who are responsible for money the Department is giving out on the people's behalf should not spend it like that when we could be making school and university books available to people. That money would go a long way towards that.

I want to move on. How many ETB, university or IT sector disclosures or whistle blowers cases are there? Does Mr. Ó Foghlú know?
