Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Irish Air Navigation Service: Chairperson Designate

Mr. Bryan Bourke:

At the moment we have an audit risk and finance committee. That would be largely responsible for risk management and the work with internal audit. I sit on a committee which has a very long name but it is basically on strategic planning and safety. I said at a meeting on Monday that we had to get a shorter name for it. We would be briefed on strategic things the management team might be thinking of looking at. I had a committee meeting the day before yesterday and a board meeting yesterday and we had a full presentation from the head of our technology team, Gerald Caffrey, who took us through where we are at and where the management team is at with that particular project. At a board level, we have presentations from the finance, technology and safety directorates and we get an opportunity to quiz them about what they are presenting on. They report on a day-to-day basis to the CEO but they will also attend different committee meetings depending on their particular areas of expertise. They report directly to the board as well.
