The second issue is the Financial Services and Pensions Ombudsman. We have a fragmented and soft system for this in Ireland. This is not a question of the funds specifically but in general, do we understand the views of the ombudsman on the further powers he desires to be able to fulfil his role in that area?
I mention Vote 8 for the Comptroller and Auditor General. The Comptroller and Auditor General does an important job and there is a reasonable and stable figure in that Vote. The Comptroller and Auditor General writes reports and the implementation of those reports is a key element. Would it be possible to find out exactly what reports from the Comptroller and Auditor General have not been followed up on or progressed as they should have been?
