Verona Murphy: The people that are looking in will judge for themselves. As I said, a number of mistakes are outlined in two reports. There are lots of small mistakes and little issues. I understand, having been in business for 30 years, that companies go bankrupt and go into liquidation but people persistently ask, what is the point of regulators? Ashtrays on motorbikes is how people who have come to...

Verona Murphy: I just wish to come in with some questions for the officials from Revenue because I would not want them to feel left out. It is very simple. A misclassification error was identified in the 2020 annual report. I wish to raise this issue for the benefit of the committee. If I am correct, that error was of the value of €33 million. It was based on the levy income dealt with by the...

Verona Murphy: Back up there now for a minute. When Mr. Creighton says "they", clearly expertise was required in identifying what was needed for such a robust system. It was not that the system had a glitch; it was the fact that those who developed it were given misinformation.

Verona Murphy: When Mr. Creighton says they "looked at the form", what kind of in-depth analysis was there before this project went into play? I ask this because this could have been a much more serious issue, and I know a figure of €33 million is already very serious. The sum went missing for a while and then came back. I am a bit staggered by the answer. I thought this had occurred because of...
