Garda Internal Audit Report on ICT Directorate Payments Process
9:00 am
Mr. Liam Kidd:
There has been an allocation of funding for additional projects on that. To put the 50% cut in context, when I started in 2008 a number of projects including the automated fingerprint identification system, AFIS, and other projects were under way but the total ICT expenditure was in the order of €90 million. This year, expenditure will be in the order of €78 million but €30 million of that expenditure is for a radio system we did not have when I started. That is where the 50% figures comes from. We have the additional expenditure on the TETRA radio system in the order of €30 million-----
