Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Ministers and Secretaries Act 1924: Department of Public Expenditure and Reform
Mr. David Moloney:
Yes, Deputy. It is very much so. Across the range of our activities, since the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform was established there has been a range of legislation which is really about openness and accountability of Government, including whistleblowing, lobbying, freedom of information, the establishment of an ombudsman and the extension of his remit. All of those things are things that civil servants engage with on a day-to-day basis.
