The clerk needs to explain to people watching this committee what the implications would be for every Dáil committee that sat in private session and the...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (13 Feb 2014)

John Deasy: We must go back to the nub of the matter - the advice that the clerk to the committee has been given, which is worth repeating. I would say to Deputy Fleming that in my opinion, this is the Legislature and that is where we are. On occasion, legislation is formulated, in my opinion, after private evidence is given in committee. We would be constructing an impediment to any potential...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (13 Feb 2014)

John Deasy: The HSE is coming in next week. We can request in the meantime a progress report on compliance and non-compliance. It has been stated in the newspapers that for the most part everybody has been, is or will be compliant, apart from one organisation. It would be no harm to tell the HSE people that this may arise, because we have dealt with this again and again.
