- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (4 Apr 2019)
Jonathan O'Brien: I think there are serious questions that need to be answered but I am not sure whether this is the committee to get those answers.

Vote 24 - Justice and Equality (4 Apr 2019) Jonathan O'Brien: I am a little uncomfortable with the line of questioning. I do not want to stop the Deputy, but a number of serious allegations are being put on the public record without any verification. If that is what Deputy MacSharry wants to do, it should be made clear that he is doing so in an individual capacity and that the committee is not putting them on the record.
