- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: I accept that but Ms Harney is a member of the governing authority, has a view and is here before the committee. Does she believe the governing authority was given correct information or does she believe it was misled?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: That would be the wide view of the-----
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: That brings the governing body to the unenviable position whereby a staff member who essentially heads up the university is providing information to the governing authority and the governing authority, which has an oversight role, relies heavily on the information provided by staff. For the benefit of anybody who is not a member of a board or governing authority, we are talking largely about...
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: I do not doubt that in any way.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: The governing authority does rely heavily on the information provided by the university.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: I am looking beyond the publication of the report and any findings that come from that. The fact that the only source of information available to the board is from the people over which it has oversight does present an inherent risk to the board. In other words, there was no independent option for the board. It could only rely on the information put before it.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: This is why I imagine members of the governing authority are so frustrated. They believed they were presented with one set of information and it transpired that it was a different set.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: Where I would disagree with Ms Harney is on the idea that the corporate entity cannot share the document among itself. In my view, the document is within the University of Limerick and I do not see any reason why the governing authority could not see that report in advance of it being published unless it had received legal advice that circulating it to 27 people on a governing authority...
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: Ms Harney has my sympathy on that point.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: I do not understand it.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: Speaking on the issue of good faith, and I accept what Ms Harney has said, a document comes before her outlining an option to purchase it. I imagine there is huge enthusiasm in the room for it and it is approved. I accept all of that. However, there is a difference between that and the results of the FOI where the governing authority was told that a valuation took place and FOI and I...
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: I will make it a long question then. I want to clarify my contribution earlier. The document that was circulated earlier was presented by the president and prepared by the deputy president. Is that paper available to the committee? If we were to request it, could it be made available to us? It seems to have been heavily relied on by the executive body in making that decision. We have...
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: Are there any conflicts of interest in regard to where they subsequently went on to work? Who are they employed with now?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: They are not employed by Dunnes Stores. There is no connection.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Paul McAuliffe: Okay. My first question was whether those papers could be made available to the committee.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development (Street Furniture Fees) Regulations 2022: Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage (12 May 2022)
Paul McAuliffe: I appreciate the differentiation in the local authority's involvement. There is still too much specification about what needs to happen for someone to apply for this. For example, there is a big space in Ballymun with the plaza and the Axis theatre. I have no doubt they could put out tables and chairs on the plaza and it would make things safer and there would be passive policing. These...
