Alan Kelly: ...genuine error and puts his name or credit card number in the wrong place. Everything on the form is accurate but on the wrong line. What would happen after something like that?

Alan Kelly: I just want confirmation that this, along with all of the other Accenture contracts, had been tendered for. Accenture is a big supplier to An Garda Síochána. I seek confirmation that nothing was rolled over or continued beyond the duration of the contract that was not tendered for. Is that right?

Alan Kelly: I am not talking about €20 or €50 or anything like that. I am talking about large events, publications or large gatherings involving the Garda. When it comes to the issue of the management of property, I understood that Deputy Commissioner Ó Cualáin was appointed to put structures in place and a modernisation programme to ensure property was protected. In terms of...

Alan Kelly: ...41. However, in July 2015, a date which is disputed and which we will clarify later, Ms O'Sullivan did not feel that the broad issues relating to a multiplicity of concerns on the issue of the Garda College were of such magnitude as to warrant referral to the Department of Justice and Equality under the same legislation.
