Saincheisteanna Tráthúla - Topical Issue Debate: Post Office Network (20 Jun 2019)

Seán Fleming: I appreciate the Minister’s remarks and he being straight and up-front. Essentially, I know the board has been given responsibility. All I ask the Minister to do is to ensure the transcript of this debate, and the fact that I have raised this issue, is transmitted to An Post headquarters so that it is aware of what we are saying. Obviously, when the company is in the Labour Court...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (20 Jun 2019)

Seán Fleming: I do not think people fully appreciated the need for a section 172 declaration when the legislation was drafted. It exists on the sale of assets but does not exist, and was not contemplated, for loans. NAMA has put in place some internal structures to try to capture some of that, even thought it is not specifically covered in the legislation. On Project Nantes, we received correspondence...
