Section 2 Report – Unauthorised Release of Funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (19 Jan 2023) Matt Carthy: To clarify, and this is a point to Mr. Jordan and the Department specifically, this is the Committee of Public Accounts. The Housing Agency is administering a scheme. A member of the Committee of Public Accounts at a hearing is asking Mr. Jordan how many people applied for that scheme. I am not asking for any of the further detail. According to the response we are receiving, the...

Section 2 Report – Unauthorised Release of Funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (19 Jan 2023) Matt Carthy: The question has been put to Mr. Jordan as the Accounting Officer in the Housing Agency, in regard to a scheme that it is administering, as to how many people applied for that scheme. Mr. Jordan's position is that he is not providing that information.

Section 2 Report – Unauthorised Release of Funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (19 Jan 2023) Matt Carthy: I asked Mr. Jordan whether the Department had instructed him not to divulge that information because it is very strange. If a local authority is carrying out a scheme which requires expressions of interest, it does not have to seek the approval of the Department in order to say how many expressions were received. It would be considered the most basic of information that is in the public...

Section 2 Report – Unauthorised Release of Funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (19 Jan 2023) Matt Carthy: There has been significant interest. Okay. We will try to move on. In terms of the significant interest, has there been a regional breakdown or disparity between the areas that Mr. Jordan cited in his article, namely, Dublin, Cork, Waterford, Limerick and Galway? Have there been expressions of interest from all of those areas, for example?

Section 2 Report – Unauthorised Release of Funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (19 Jan 2023) Matt Carthy: I presume state aid approval has not been granted. From that and from Mr. Baneham's reticence to give information, I take it that no application has actually been approved as of yet. Is that fair to say?

Section 2 Report – Unauthorised Release of Funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (19 Jan 2023) Matt Carthy: I take it that Mr. Baneham also cannot or will not provide a breakdown of approvals by local authority area or project size. We will have to follow up on this matter and use our authority to insist on that information being provided. This is a flagship programme. In every debate on housing I listen to, a Government spokesperson tells us that this is going to be a key scheme. One of the...

Section 2 Report – Unauthorised Release of Funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (19 Jan 2023) Matt Carthy: We are told that, at the summit, representatives of a number of developers were indicating that they wanted an increased level of subsidy. I take it the Housing Agency was represented at that seminar.

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 Jan 2023)
Matt Carthy: I support that proposal. We need to have quite an in-depth discussion with the HSE on disability services. One of the things about which we could correspond with the HSE beforehand is the level of services provided by comparison with the level of funding provided for each region. For example, in the community healthcare organisation, CHO, that my constituency falls under, I am aware that...

Matt Carthy: But here it is actually blatant. The policy prevents some children from applying. There will always be disparities with waiting lists and the timeframe within which services are delivered, but here we have a situation where policy is discriminating against children depending on where they live.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 Jan 2023)
Matt Carthy: No, I have nothing. I had questions in respect of the Department of Housing, Heritage and Local Government. Its officials are appearing before the committee next week, however, so I will leave it there.

Matt Carthy: This is in respect of the pensions issue.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 Jan 2023)
Matt Carthy: This matter arose in terms of the regulator, particularly upon the privatisation of the lottery when matters relating to the pensions of previous workers who transferred were not resolved in advance. There are other areas where this has become an issue. Can the Comptroller and Auditor General explain how these anomalies arise?
