Public Accounts Committee

Special Report No. 77 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Dublin Docklands Development Authority (Resumed)

4:20 pm

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

Perhaps this is the item:


4. Ministerial consent
While the authority is a body corporate with perpetual succession and power to sue and be sued in its corporate name and to acquire hold and dispose of land ... nevertheless the Authority has undertaken to abide by the Code of Practice for the Governance of State bodies which requires the consent of the Minister in respect of the involvement of the Authority in the acquisition of a company. A copy of the application for consent is attached.
