Public Accounts Committee

Business of Committee

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

I certainly do not want to prejudge any case until we look at it. We have consistently emphasised the need to have good procurement procedures and strategies and sound systems, obviously one needs to be able to react quickly. That does not mean that one just invents a new way of doing it. There is an existing way of doing it and existing tests. There is information about suppliers. One should be able to rely on that kind of information when one has to procure something urgently. That is the kind of approach we try to bring to it.
