- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (13 Jul 2017)
Catherine Connolly: The letter simply notes coverage in the newspaper. It does not say anything about content. To be fair, the letter writer states that he notes from coverage that the report will be made. On a general level, perhaps on the question of issuing the report, NAMA asked for a report and various other groups have asked for a report. What needs to be clarified by the Chair is the procedure in...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (13 Jul 2017)
Catherine Connolly: NAMA asked us for the report and we went through the procedure. We need to clarify publicly the procedure when we are doing reports. That might be helpful.

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (13 Jul 2017) Catherine Connolly: Cuirim fáilte roimh an Coimisinéir. We will soon be on holidays – all of us in this committee at any rate. We are looking at the accounts for 2015. I am going to direct my question to those accounts. What was the response to the recruitment competition? How many applicants applied by the closing date on 1 June?

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (13 Jul 2017) Catherine Connolly: Go raibh maith agat as ucht an soiléiriú sin. B'fhéidir go dtiocfaidh mé ar ais go dtí an ceist seo. In regard to the Garda Síochána report for 2015, a number of matters were identified. One matter related to procurement, to which I will return later, and two significant financial risks were identified. The audit of the Garda College is a matter for...

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (13 Jul 2017) Catherine Connolly: These are the official accounts and this is the caveat that was put in. It was put in with respect to the current financial matters, which always concerned me. If the Commissioner is accepting that they are certainly not in compliance with current standards, then they also were not in compliance with the standards that were there previously.

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (13 Jul 2017) Catherine Connolly: The second issue relates to the storage and management of property, which is a serious matter. The Commissioner has identified that as a significant financial risk. I read the O'Higgins report of last year in detail. One of the items that jumped out of it, to cite one example, was the computer that went missing in the Fr. Molloy case. There are serious issues involved. That is one...

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (13 Jul 2017) Catherine Connolly: Will the Commissioner clarify what property we are talking about? There is property that is essential in terms of evidence in court cases and there is other property. Can the Commissioner give us the details?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (13 Jul 2017) Catherine Connolly: Sticking with the property that is essential for evidence, how could the storage of that be a significant risk in 2017? What has happened? The Commissioner has said there were inadequate premises and inadequate storage facilities. Are there other problems?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (13 Jul 2017) Catherine Connolly: That is okay. What I am more interested in, and the more serious issue, is evidence that is taken and held in regard to court cases. I notice that this has been prioritised in the strategic transformation programme.
