Public Accounts Committee

2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 38 - Health

9:30 am

Mr. Robert Watt:

The Deputy is making out that I am refusing to do it. The reason is that we are involved in commercially sensitive negotiations involving significant public funds. Is the Deputy really suggesting, with all due respect, that we would publish commercially sensitive information in the middle of disputes that are going to the High Court and that involve millions of euro of taxpayers' money?
