An inquiry was conducted by the UK's equivalent of this committee, namely, the House of Commons Committee of Public Accounts, into the parent company of Seetec Employment and Skills Ireland and into Working Links. The companies were accused of artificially inflating the figures for people with disabilities. Did the Department pay any attention to that when the contract was being awarded?
