Mr. Conlon's Department is now known as the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform. It is quite a lengthy title and there is a lot in there. He has set out what he is expecting to be done immediately in each Department relevant to these projects. What happens when it is not done? What happens when a Department consistently overruns on its budget? What happens when a Department has a number of agencies that are being investigated by the Comptroller and Auditor General or the Committee of Public Accounts or, indeed, about which the public has concerns? What sanctions can be imposed on Departments for not adhering to the requirements set out in Circular 06/2023?
