Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence
Review of Workplace Arrangements: Department of Foreign Affairs
Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
I believe that we have acted appropriately. I believe the appropriate person to undertake this review was the Accounting Officer of the Department, who is responsible for the staff of the Department and workplace issues. Having the Secretary General and the HR team undertake this report, completely independent of me, was the appropriate course of action. The issue to which the Deputy refers relating to an incident in McKee Barracks is an entirely different one.
