Comptroller and Auditor General Section 2 Report on Unauthorised release of funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (Resumed) (20 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: I hear what the Cathaoirleach has said about the information that has been put into the public domain and I accept what Mr. Hogan said. It certainly does not tally that it would be to the benefit of the Department. Irrespective of that, from the committee's perspective, the involvement of the Exchequer in any way in this has been the big conundrum. If we were to step back from the actual...

Comptroller and Auditor General Section 2 Report on Unauthorised release of funds from the Central Fund of the Exchequer (Resumed) (20 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: Mr. Makhlouf mentioned what has happened since 2010. Could he pinpoint any specifics that have changed? He mentioned systematic change. What would he highlight as the biggest changes? What the committee raised about the leak is important but at the end of the day, the committee is concerned about the public finances and their exposure to a situation similar to what we are discussing now....

Cormac Devlin: What Mr. Makhlouf is effectively saying is that from the Central Bank's perspective, the regulatory regime and oversight has improved over the past decade. It has initiated a number of changes. Mr. Makhlouf mentioned third-party expertise that the bank did not possess. Despite the fact that it did not possess such expertise, Mr. Makhlouf made reference to the fact that it was somehow a new...

Committee on Public Petitions: Public Petition on Lil Reds Legacy Sepsis Awareness Campaign: Engagement with the HSE (20 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: I thank the members of the HSE for coming in, particularly Dr. Henry. It is good to see him again and engage with him. I acknowledge, as the Cathaoirleach did, the presence in the Public Gallery of Joe and Karen Hughes. It is good to have the HSE respond so promptly to the request of the committee to discuss the issue of sepsis. I am very pleased with what I have heard this afternoon from...

Committee on Public Petitions: Public Petition on Lil Reds Legacy Sepsis Awareness Campaign: Engagement with the HSE (20 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: That is very heartening because at the most recent engagement we had with Mr. Hughes, his impression was there was more information on sepsis in his own home than there was anywhere else. Everybody will be aware that there were interruptions during the pandemic but the clinical lead is very important because that will put an emphasis on raising the awareness of sepsis. The information on...

Committee on Public Petitions: Public Petition on Lil Reds Legacy Sepsis Awareness Campaign: Engagement with the HSE (20 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: Chair, I suggest that we might follow up with the HSE perhaps this time next year to track progress on this. Again, like my colleagues, I thank Dr. Henry and his colleagues for giving the committee the time and talking us through the new and very welcome initiatives the HSE is taking. I commend the work of Lil Reds Legacy Sepsis Awareness Campaign and all the work it has done to date...

Public Accounts Committee: An Bord Pleanála - Financial Statements 2021 (27 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: I welcome Ms Buckley and the other witnesses. Her approach to today and to her new role is very welcome. I appreciate her frankness and honesty, or being as much as she can be at this point. I think she realises the scale of the challenge ahead of her in terms of the reputational damage to the board that has unfortunately dogged it for the past 12 months, if not before that. I am going to...

Public Accounts Committee: An Bord Pleanála - Financial Statements 2021 (27 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: That includes the 34 recommendations.

Public Accounts Committee: An Bord Pleanála - Financial Statements 2021 (27 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: That is fine. Is there one protected disclosure?

Public Accounts Committee: An Bord Pleanála - Financial Statements 2021 (27 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: How many internal reviews are being done? Ms Buckley mentioned a HR review. Are any other reviews being done in the organisation?

Public Accounts Committee: An Bord Pleanála - Financial Statements 2021 (27 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: Are there any reviews being done internally, apart from the HR review, full stop?

Public Accounts Committee: An Bord Pleanála - Financial Statements 2021 (27 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: That is going to cover a lot.

Public Accounts Committee: An Bord Pleanála - Financial Statements 2021 (27 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: That is fair enough. Turning to the statutory penalty payments to which Deputy Burke referred a few moments ago, I note that in 2021 a €10,000 penalty was paid out, and in 2022, that figure rose to €1.34 million. What is the reason behind that?

Public Accounts Committee: An Bord Pleanála - Financial Statements 2021 (27 Apr 2023)

Cormac Devlin: Okay.

Cormac Devlin: Of course, with the LRDs, the onus is really on the council first and foremost. It has to adhere to-----
