Mary Coughlan (Donegal South West, Fianna Fail)

As I indicated in the House yesterday, the Comptroller and Auditor General has been requested by me to investigate the matter. We will await the discussions and deliberations of the Committee of Public Accounts at which stage terms of reference will be finalised. I hope there will be a speedy examination of the investigation. The report will then be laid before the House and will come to me.
