Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Overview of Operations of the National Lottery: Discussion

1:30 pm

Mr. Derek Donohoe:

I take the Chairman's point. I am not trying to justify this; I am trying to explain the situation. It is not absolute discretion for the operator in the sense that it is restricted to promotion of the national lottery.
