Comptroller and Auditor General Special Report No. 99 - Public Sector Financial Reporting for 2015 (16 Nov 2017) Alan Kelly: I have a lot of questions I hope to get through. The Chairman, in fairness to him, has been consistent in his wish to examine this whole sector, and I can see exactly why from his opening question. However, the response from the Department's Accounting Officer was incredible and, indeed, scary. It was the most basic question the Secretary General could have been asked, and he should...

Comptroller and Auditor General Special Report No. 99 - Public Sector Financial Reporting for 2015 (16 Nov 2017) Alan Kelly: It was 15 years or so ago but I am putting it on the record for transparency purposes. The documentation we have indicates that the education and training boards have significant discretion in respect of the block grant they receive. Is the Department of Education and Skills happy to allow that sort of openness?

Comptroller and Auditor General Special Report No. 99 - Public Sector Financial Reporting for 2015 (16 Nov 2017) Alan Kelly: I will get back to that. The ETBs have been in operation since 2013. I do not expect Mr. Ó Foghlú to have a figure to hand - unlike the other figure which he should have been able to give but was not - but will he provide the committee with a break-down of the savings that have been made as a consequence of the establishment of the ETBs, at both a national level and also by ETB...

Comptroller and Auditor General Special Report No. 99 - Public Sector Financial Reporting for 2015 (16 Nov 2017) Alan Kelly: I am anxious to ensure I get precisely the information I am requesting. I submitted a parliamentary question on this issue and the answer was not great. I realise it cannot exactly be a case of apples with apples and oranges with oranges, but I am asking, in the context of the remit of the former vocational education committees and the broader remit of the ETBs, for a breakdown of the...

Comptroller and Auditor General Special Report No. 99 - Public Sector Financial Reporting for 2015 (16 Nov 2017) Alan Kelly: I would like to be absolutely sure, from an educational point of view, that there is not a loss across the whole ETB sector in respect of the capacity of ETBI to do other things arising from its total budget of €1.268 million plus. If each ETB is providing €40,000 or so, we are probably talking about approximately €1.6 million or €1.7 million?
