Public Accounts Committee: 2021 Report on the Accounts of the Public Services of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 19 - Exchequer receipts from National Lottery ticket sales (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: On the player welfare side, I think 48 people were contacted subsequent to their self-exclusion. Are people within the national lottery to dedicated helping or managing that? I appreciate Mr. Algeo does not want to trigger them in any way, as the regulator contact said, but who is dedicated to the follow-up of finding the system error, fixing it and making contact with gambling support...

Public Accounts Committee: 2021 Report on the Accounts of the Public Services of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 19 - Exchequer receipts from National Lottery ticket sales (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I appreciate Mr. Algeo cannot talk about communications with the regulator but has PLI had to invoke that process within its organisation in, say, 2022?

Public Accounts Committee: 2021 Report on the Accounts of the Public Services of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 19 - Exchequer receipts from National Lottery ticket sales (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: PLI has notified the regulator, therefore.

Public Accounts Committee: 2021 Report on the Accounts of the Public Services of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 19 - Exchequer receipts from National Lottery ticket sales (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Nothing of the nature we were talking about, however, has been notified to the regulator in regard to self-exclusions.

Public Accounts Committee: 2021 Report on the Accounts of the Public Services of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 19 - Exchequer receipts from National Lottery ticket sales (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I was referring to the notifications of issues about which PLI should notify the regulator. Of course, she has her own capacity to make assessments as well. Deputy Verona Murphy asked about the upper limit on a fine that might issue or about the withholding of funds that might be applied by the regulator. From a commercial perspective, what is the upper limit of the sum to be withheld that...

Public Accounts Committee: 2021 Report on the Accounts of the Public Services of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 19 - Exchequer receipts from National Lottery ticket sales (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Presumably, that is something Mr. Algeo, with his senior management team, builds into PLI’s risk management in some way, taking account of its capacity to have that sort of funding withheld.

Public Accounts Committee: 2021 Report on the Accounts of the Public Services of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 19 - Exchequer receipts from National Lottery ticket sales (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I fully understand that. The question I am trying to get to might be better directed at the regulator, whom we may again invite to appear before the committee. She confirmed to us on the previous occasion that there have been no such withholdings, if that is the phrase, ever within the terms of the licence. While the upper limit, therefore, is €20 million and PLI works in the way it...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Architects of the Good Friday Agreement (Resumed): Mr. John Bruton (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I thank Mr. Bruton very much for attending. On my colleague's question on a border poll, I sometimes feel arguments to have a border poll today, tomorrow or in five years without any real conversation about what comes next envisage the poll as an end in itself. It is a bit like achieving Irish independence in that this was an end in itself without the statecraft determining what should...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Architects of the Good Friday Agreement (Resumed): Mr. John Bruton (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Going back to Mr. Bruton's paper on the twin-track approach, I want to ask him about the experience of negotiating that and how it was reached. One of the things the committee is trying to do is to look back to the personal experience and learn from it at this remove. His paper refers to the difficulty of finding a way to involve Sinn Féin in political talks, given the existence of a...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Architects of the Good Friday Agreement (Resumed): Mr. John Bruton (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: Presumably, he would have given the same answer, given the work that he did on it. I can only speculate.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Architects of the Good Friday Agreement (Resumed): Mr. John Bruton (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: My other question is about parity of esteem with regard to aspirations, which is in Mr. Bruton's submission, and the seemingly forever binary approach to the border poll. It is an interesting point that I had not considered in that depth. At any time when we have that conversation, can we build further options into any new constitutional structure? I do not know. I cannot think through it yet.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Architects of the Good Friday Agreement (Resumed): Mr. John Bruton (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: The other one is up for grabs whenever the circumstances dictate.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on the Implementation of the Good Friday Agreement: Architects of the Good Friday Agreement (Resumed): Mr. John Bruton (8 Dec 2022)

Jennifer Carroll MacNeill: I have two other questions relating to Mr. Bruton's paper. With regard to the holding of arms and being asked about welcoming of decommissioning, I refer to his response that to give any other answer would have been to collude in a breach of Article 15. I ask him to elaborate on that briefly.
