Garda Internal Audit Report on ICT Directorate Payments Process
9:00 am
Mr. Liam Kidd:
I have already set out that we produced the HR strategy just over two years ago, which set out the structures and the people we needed for An Garda Síochána. In terms of whether they are full-time, certainly at the leadership management and supervisory level I would want at least to have full-time people in those positions and, where we need to outsource, it would be in the less critical areas. If we have to outsource, it will be areas such as the ICT service desk, which is to do with fixing personal computers, PCs, and things like that, but in certain areas we cannot do that. All of that is set out in our ICT HR strategy, which is mentioned in the audit report.
