Dignity and Equality Issues in the Defence Forces: Motion (8 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: I welcome the opportunity to speak to this very important motion that has been brought forward by my colleague, Deputy Sorca Clarke. We have all been horrified by the stories told in Ms Katie Hannon's RTÉ documentary from last September, which laid bare the horrific abuse, harassment and discrimination experienced by some female members of the Defence Forces. At that time, the...

An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (8 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: Last month it was announced that east Meath would be added to the Drogheda Garda boundary. The Minister for Justice at that time had said that Laytown Garda station might be refurbished and we would see an increase in Garda numbers. I sent a parliamentary question to the Minister a couple of weeks ago looking for details of the plan. She did not answer the question. I put the very same...

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: I will follow on with some questions around the PPPs and particularly the risk profile. Mr. Walsh advised that the risk related to toll income or road volume as well as construction costs that had been removed from the State and placed within those companies. What are the total potential unforeseen costs or losses of income that ended up being borne by these PPPs rather than by the State...

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: Perhaps we can get in totality the total potential unforeseen costs or losses of income. Mr. Walsh said that the risk associated was placed on these companies and removed from the State. Can we find out the loss of income that ended up being borne by the PPPs?

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: Inasmuch as it can, will TII give us the losses that the PPPs ended up paying for?

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: I would also like a breakdown of that, in as transparent a way as is possible. Can TII tell us the total income derived from these projects by the private partners?

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: Yes.

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: I ask TII to forward it on to us. This committee is interested in ascertaining the actual savings to the State and the costs that were incurred to these PPPs. I understand the version of TII's accounts that was laid before the Oireachtas differs from that on TII's website. It relates to salaries in particular. The CEO salary on the website version is different from that certified by the...

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: Okay, I thank Ms Keogh for that. On the former CEO's salary, it was €183,000 in 2019. The payment of €165,000 in the accounts initially laid would imply that when he left in September he had, I am assuming, nearly six weeks worth of holidays accrued. Is that correct?

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: How many weeks was that holiday payment for?

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: Will Ms Keogh explain again, please? The difference between the two accounts is an additional €29,000.

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: Is it six weeks holidays? He left in September 2020, which was nine months after the start of the pandemic. Did Mr. Nolan carry forward his entire holiday complement from 2019?

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: Okay. Will Ms Keogh forward us that detail so we can figure out the difference ourselves?

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: There was another thing. I know that Mr. Nolan began on a salary on €166,000 and it increased to €183,000 over the seven years. In September 2020, the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform recommended that the role should command a salary of €190,000. How was that review instigated? Was it unsolicited from the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform or did...

Public Accounts Committee: Transport Infrastructure Ireland: Financial Statements 2020 (3 Feb 2022)

Imelda Munster: I believe it was €166,000.
