Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

European Court of Auditors Annual Report 2022: Discussion

Mr. Tony Murphy:

I do not think we can call a halt. That is the problem. In terms of the governance structure, the Council is the key. We audit what it has legislated for. If I were to criticise that, the Council would say we are acting completely outside of our mandate, we are getting into the political domain, it is none of our business, these are decisions taken by the proper authorities and the ECA’s role is to see how these decisions are implemented.
