- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Pilot Training College of Ireland: Discussion (24 May 2017)
Catherine Murphy: I appreciate the scale of what Ms Kealy is talking about but we must be honest with her in terms of what is possible. The Minister does not have competence in respect of private companies, but there is an obligation to ensure that systems are in place to protect against this happening. I think that is where Mr. Kealy is coming in respect of how the IAA, when examining the accounts, looked...

Catherine Murphy: If people were doing some degree of due diligence before handing over money for training, it would have been very easy for them to take some degree of comfort in the Irish Aviation Authority having an accounts oversight function and Enterprise Ireland involving itself by taking on shares. That was part of the reason that people would have chosen that particular-----

- Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement: Statements (25 May 2017)
Catherine Murphy: I am sharing time with Deputy Ryan. In the Minister's opening statement, she spoke about people being frustrated and disappointed. She is wide of the mark in using tame terms such as frustration and disappointment because people are outraged and furious and have a right to be. The case in the courts this week must be a game changer. Otherwise, we may as well hang up our hats because...

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (25 May 2017)
Catherine Murphy: Might the intellectual property include things like, for example, the material produced within universities that is then provided for the various journals where people are not paid for their work, or is it exclusive to the spin-out companies?
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (25 May 2017)

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (25 May 2017)
Catherine Murphy: Almost all or most of what we will examine are historical circumstances about which we can do very little, except try to create consequences to change future behaviour.
