Garda Internal Audit Report on ICT Directorate Payments Process

9:00 am

Mr. Dónall Ó Cualáin:

Deputy Cullinane asked whether we should have started this process in 2014. The learning for the organisation is clear in this area, and I have tasked Mr. Kelly with ensuring that this does not repeat itself and that we have controls in place now. For that contract to be renewed, given the time it has taken since its initiation in 2016 we should have started in 2012. We are just now delivering on it. That is the reality. We have to flag up all our procurement in all other procurement areas and to provide a good lead-in time to ensure that the compliance requirements are respected.
