- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (9 Mar 2017)
Catherine Connolly: On the private session, it might be appropriate to clarify whether a session is ever private in due course.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (9 Mar 2017)

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (9 Mar 2017)
Catherine Connolly: We might come back to that.

Catherine Connolly: As Deputy McDonald indicated, the committee asked for a breakdown of the staff. Moreover, some staff kept their jobs. How was the decision made to transfer and retain some staff? Responsibility for what occurred in Console lies with senior management of the organisation. It would be interesting to obtain a breakdown showing which personnel remained in employment when they were transferred...

Catherine Connolly: As someone who attends on a regular basis, I would have no difficulty with that, but it is impossible to keep this pace up and people have not attended other extra meetings. Theoretically, it is wonderful. In practice, it is difficult. Deputies are attending other meetings. We are running in and out. Let us be realistic. We have given it our all to produce the report on Project Eagle....

HSE Financial Statement 2015: Note 13 re Fair Deal Scheme
Health Repayments Scheme Donations Fund 2015 (9 Mar 2017) Catherine Connolly: I agree with the Chairman's ruling. It is right in relation to fair procedures - end of story. It seems to me that the terms of reference cannot be set today. Very serious allegations and issues were raised by Deputy McDonald and others in the Dáil and it would not be right for the Dáil to conclude terms of reference in a vacuum.

HSE Financial Statement 2015: Note 13 re Fair Deal Scheme
Health Repayments Scheme Donations Fund 2015 (9 Mar 2017) Catherine Connolly: I do not believe that the terms of reference can now be set in view of what has come out here this morning and if we are to comply with fair procedures. I agree with the Chairman's ruling but given the information that has come out today and the issues being raised - in addition to other concerns we already had in the Dáil around the inadequacy of the terms of reference - it would do a...

HSE Financial Statement 2015: Note 13 re Fair Deal Scheme
Health Repayments Scheme Donations Fund 2015 (9 Mar 2017) Catherine Connolly: I thank Mr. O'Brien and all his colleagues for coming before the committee this morning. I often say that it is a good exercise in democracy and accountability. I respect that the HSE representatives are here to give replies. I am keen to have the last point clarified. The repayments came to 50% of the expected amount. Presumably, money was put aside in the budget for double the...

HSE Financial Statement 2015: Note 13 re Fair Deal Scheme
Health Repayments Scheme Donations Fund 2015 (9 Mar 2017) Catherine Connolly: I wish to deal with the interest and the legacy in respect of the interest. I understand that €4.4 million was retained in interest by the Health Service Executive. First of all, the interest was not paid out. These are historical legacies. Is that correct? First, the money was not paid out. Then, it was paid. Now, the interest remains to be paid out. Has the HSE paid some of...
