Chapter 5: Vote Accounting and Budget Management (16 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: We can look for that information across the various schemes. I have a scheme in my area, as I am sure everybody does in their area, that seems to be dragging out to eternity. It would be useful to see exactly what the timelines are and what the progress is on the various schemes. The Crossmolina scheme is of particular interest to the Deputy.

Chapter 5: Vote Accounting and Budget Management (16 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: I want to revert to the issue of consultancy fees for a few minutes. One of the standout ones is Transport Infrastructure Ireland, TII, with a reported €2.1 million in consultancy fees, and then through freedom of information we read that it is actually €86.1 million. I want to raise this with Mr. Moloney in a helpful way. When one sees a heading like business-as-usual...

Chapter 5: Vote Accounting and Budget Management (16 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: There is a huge overuse of it. As I said, I do not have any fix with regard to not bringing consultants or experts. It is appropriate at times. One has to do it, and I understand the logic of doing it. It is quite all right to do that. However, for minor projects, we are adding on. There is the issue of housing. I want to raise this directly with Mr. Moloney. We have a housing crisis...

Chapter 5: Vote Accounting and Budget Management (16 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: That is what I am asking. I have said it to the Minister, and I am saying it to Mr. Moloney. I have said it to the Secretary General of the Department, and I have said it to the previous Ministers. Local authorities built 1,666 homes last year. Four local authorities, including Kildare County Council, built none. If you are starting from scratch the whole time, there is a dead hand on...

Chapter 5: Vote Accounting and Budget Management (16 Nov 2023) Brian Stanley: Does the Department have staff for this? From watching these assessments that are referred to external consultants going back and forward, the Department will have a fair idea of what the issues are. The staff in the various offices in the Department will be aware of them. Are there staff there that have competence in terms of carrying out those assessments in-house? That would speed up...
