Public Accounts Committee: Caranua: Financial Statements 2019 (17 Dec 2020)

Imelda Munster: I thank the witnesses for making themselves available. In a letter to the committee, dated 4 November, Ms Downes stated: "All survivors are treated fairly by Caranua". The independent appeals officers and the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission did not believe that people were treated fairly by Caranua.

Public Accounts Committee: Caranua: Financial Statements 2019 (17 Dec 2020)

Imelda Munster: Yes. If Ms Downes reads their reports she will see that they did not feel people were treated fairly. There were particular incidents which Ms Downes will see if she reads the reports. I received correspondence about a particular case. I know Ms Downes said Caranua will not discuss individual cases, which is fine. This correspondent has given me permission to-----

Public Accounts Committee: Caranua: Financial Statements 2019 (17 Dec 2020)

Imelda Munster: I absolutely will not. The survivor gave me permission to raise the case and I am particularly doing so, given that Caranua's report had positive cases so I might give voice to this case. The correspondence I will read was in response to an email this Monday from Caranua to this survivor. The last part of the email from Caranua to this survivor said: "All of your needs have now been met...

Public Accounts Committee: Caranua: Financial Statements 2019 (17 Dec 2020)

Imelda Munster: I am not asking Ms Downes to do that. I am asking her if she would take this opportunity. Ms Downes acknowledged earlier that there were cases in which survivors were not satisfied. Would Ms Downes like to take this perfect opportunity to apologise to survivors who feel their experience was not satisfactory or helpful but was stressful and who feel they did not get what they deserved from...

Public Accounts Committee: Caranua: Financial Statements 2019 (17 Dec 2020)

Public Accounts Committee: Caranua: Financial Statements 2019 (17 Dec 2020)

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (16 Dec 2020)

Imelda Munster: Last week was a prime example of the effects of Standing Order 218 and how it ties the hands of committee members. The whole purpose of the committee involves its probing nature and accountability systems, practice and procedures. Because of that Standing Order, witnesses who may have felt that they were coming in for quite a grilling if there was justification relating to practice and...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (16 Dec 2020)

Imelda Munster: I was going to bring up a matter under correspondence but we are talking about it now. I want to speak broadly about the responses we got from the education and training boards, ETBs. They all seem to report issues with maintaining and reporting on compliance across the board, due to the organisations and bodies that they oversee not having uniform reporting systems. Is Mr. McCarthy aware...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (16 Dec 2020)

Imelda Munster: There is concern and fear that the ETBs are starting to sound like the HSE. There are a variety of different agencies for procurement and they cannot give all the details. There are different areas and they do not have details about different branches. Will the new system counteract any of that?

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (16 Dec 2020)

Imelda Munster: Yes.
