Mr. Garret Doocey:

One thing to clarify is that there are some issues that require resolution with regard to the ultimate form of the delivery body as well. Deputy McAuliffe has left, but he made reference to a designated activity company, DAC. The actual legislative form of whether it will be an authority or a DAC is still to be decided. Some of the issues Deputy Boland raised and which Mr. Spratt has mentioned are still to be decided, such as C and AG oversight. We want transparency. We want accountability. That is the rationale. That is the fundamental reason we are making this change. Absolutely, in the legislation establishing the delivery body, we will have a section that says, as you do with other agencies and CSPs, that the chair and CEO are required to come into the Oireachtas if invited. Our concern as the project is commencing its next phase is whether we have that line of sight and direct line accountability right now. We need to have it so we will take those views on board in terms of the development of legislation.
