Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence
Review of Workplace Arrangements: Department of Foreign Affairs
Mr. Joe Hackett:
I hope not. I do not know what they feel. They would probably see the most senior member of the Department, the Secretary General, held to a high standard here. I can explain, in response to Senator Ardagh, the question around the donation. They would have seen the level of public scrutiny on the then Secretary General over the past six weeks and considered he paid a considerable cost for his error of judgment and mistake.
