Every time we have had someone before us - we see it right across the accounts - there are inevitably huge numbers in regard to legal settlements. What is the process in getting sign-off for settlements? Does the Department have to sign off any settlements of more than €50,000, but there is no oversight or accountability of the legal fees for all of the cases right across the public service?
