I wan to know how this happened. We have a scenario where an organisation was sub-contracted by Tusla, which, I presume and as outlined earlier, is under deep pressure. Documentation was not screened, there were issues with Garda vetting and yet the organisation involved got close on €10 million over a number of years from Ms Duggan's organisation. How in the name of God did this happen? How could an organisation like this get through all the checks and balances and be paid nearly €10 million by Tusla? It is quite obvious they should not have been let anywhere near doing this work.
