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

Changes to Public Spending Code: Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform

Mr. John Conlon:

On the Deputy's second question, we had a lot of consultation, some of which Mr. Meaney was involved in, involving interaction with Departments on the ways in which practitioner groups and the Secretaries General group I mentioned were getting feedback from them and how the processes could be speeded up. There was regular engagement and we have regular engagements with Departments to learn from those processes.
