Public Accounts Committee

2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 7 - Dormant Accounts Fund

9:00 am

Mr. Kevin McCarthy:

Social Innovation Fund Ireland is required to source matching funding from private philanthropists. That is a constraint on its capacity to gear up. We understand that at this point, it has identified a potential €10 million pipeline of private philanthropist donors. That will allow it to continue to gear up.
