Public Accounts Committee
2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach
9:00 am
Mr. Martin Fraser:
I gave the reasons in my report. The first was that it was taking up far too much time in the Taoiseach's Department, which comprises only 200 staff. I have read all of what we do. For 200 people, we do quite a lot. The second reason was that I had concerns that we were losing the trust of people who might serve in future Governments.
