Willie Penrose (Longford-Westmeath, Labour)

It would appear that the Tánaiste wants a specific investigation. From her inquiries with FÁS and her Department, is she satisfied that the steps taken on new procedures in accountancy and auditing will be put in place, thereby ensuring no recurrence of a matter that may be the subject of an investigation? We should not prejudge an outcome until after a full investigation has been carried out.

Some 500,000 people must be retrained and reskilled. The Minister of State, Deputy Haughey, is involved.
