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

Authorised Push Payments Fraud: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Justin Kelly:

No. For us to run an investigation, whatever we have on our PULSE system is then deemed to be an incident. We must have an incident on the PULSE system and the investigation comes from that. That figure I gave of 800 to 1,000 a month is how many investigations we initiate per month. If one extrapolates that across the year, it is approximately 12,000 full investigations.
