- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: I want to come back to a couple of issues. First, it is my understanding that the OPW will build the children's science facility, the charity will then fit it out and it will then be handed back to the OPW to run. Is my understanding of that wrong or right?

- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: Surely that is an issue that needs to be teased out because it does not have the funding to run it. Now that there is competition with another facility 11 miles away there is surely an alteration to a business case.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: To be honest with Mr. Conlon, I am still struggling to get my head around how a charitable organisation can have its foot on the throat of the State for something like this. I wish the people in my area were as powerful as this charitable group when it comes to the Castletown House lands where €25 million has been put into a wonderful facility that people cannot access now. I find it...

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: This was the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform at the time that would have given the authority. If I remember, back in 2013 the troika was here and we were losing public services hand over fist. Reform was the code word for cuts, yet here is a financial commitment being made for something without a business case.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: For God's sake. I really question the power of the State when it comes to the power of a charitable organisation. I just find that head-wrecking. Will it be the OPW that gets the business case?

Vote 13 - Office of Public Works (13 Jun 2024) Catherine Murphy: I can see it being a case of pass-the-parcel here. We will hear: "It is not mine; it is the Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science". If we go to that Department, it will say it is nothing to do with it. I can see it will be a case of pass-the-parcel. There must be some combination of Departments involved here. As Mr. O'Connor says, there is work to...
