Mr. Seamus McCarthy:
Every Department has a responsibility to carry out appropriate spending and value-for-money reviews and account for that value for money in areas of expenditure that they control. It is a legitimate question to ask an Accounting Officer the Department's programme of reviews, how the elements are selected and when other spending priorities will be dealt with.
