Higher Education Authority - Annual Financial Statements 2011: Discussion

Mr. Tom Boland:

I agree totally with the Deputy in principle. It can be done and there should be more management of moneys from all sources. It is a matter of allowing organisations to have cash to assist them in their operations and not creating circumstances in which there might be excessive cash, whatever the quantum might be.
