Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Statement of Strategy 2011-2014: Discussion with Department of Finance
3:35 pm
Mr. John A. Moran:
There is a small group at the level of assistant secretary in the team of Dr. Nicholas O'Brien. There are three individuals on the secondment sub-committee. If issues of concern are raised, they will address them. They consider the acceptability of the individuals who come in and are working to have a formal process and procedures in place to identify who can come in, their level of access to various information and whether there should be restrictions on access such as the level of committee on which they should sit. This is managed by the committee and HR personnel.
