Joe Flaherty (Longford-Westmeath, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I am aware that the Minister recently announced the appointment of five external members to the Project Ireland 2040 delivery board. Heretofore the membership of the board was predominantly comprised of Secretaries General of the main spending Government Departments and the appointment of five new external members will bring additional knowledge, greater private sector experience and important independent and regional perspectives to the deliberations of this important board. Can the Minister advise on the actions he is taking to ensure he gets value for money under the NDP?
