In a clean audit, opinion is not required because of the principle of a true and fair view, but in the case of a variation,...

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (20 Jun 2013)
Kieran O'Donnell: This matter is coming up a lot in terms of the workings of the PAC. We need strong counsel opinion on requesting witnesses to attend.

Kieran O'Donnell: To take up the point Deputy John Deasy made that Mr. Elderfield stated the sanctions and the legislation dealing with white collar crime were not fit for purpose, when I was in the Chair on the day, I gave an undertaking that it would form part of the module on banking. We are doing a review on banking and we gave a commitment on the day. It is on record that the Committee of Public...

Special Report No. 80 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Administration of National Health and Local Authority Levy Fund (20 Jun 2013) Kieran O'Donnell: I welcome Mr. O'Flynn. I have a couple of questions. I do not want to get bogged down in detail but, effectively, €3 million of taxpayers' money went into a hole, with no accountability. No one seems to know anything about it bar, from what I can see, Mr. Merrigan. My question is on the set-up of the SIPTU national health and local authority levy fund. Was that part of social...
