Irish Coast Guard: Discussion
Kieran O'Donnell (Limerick City, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
With due respect, Mr. Clonan, how did that happen? How did the Coast Guard put out a tender for a project worth €160,000 which did not require any business case to go to the Department and which suddenly ballooned into a €1.4 million contract that never got Department approval? How in the name of God did that happen in the Irish Coast Guard? We talk about corporate changes and so on. I was on the Committee of Public Accounts. This is as damning a report as I have seen. The question is this: how did it happen?
