- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: Ms Harney has made all those points.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: The only question I am asking is whether any member of the board question any of that.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: Ms Harney was obviously a high-profile catch, if you like, as chancellor for the university in 2018. She has an esteemed record not only in this House but also elsewhere. She mentioned earlier she also has a role with KPMG. How many entities does Ms Harney sit on the board of or play a role within, in terms of committees?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: Committees, companies or entities.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: Even with regard to the deliberations of this committee, there seems to be quite an amount of work associated with chancellorship. My understanding is Ms Harney waives any remuneration. Is that still the case?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: That is laudable.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: I am conscious that part of the reason for the delay of this meeting was Ms Harney's availability. I understand why that was the case, considering her various roles. Will Ms Harney give a sense of how many hours per week she devotes to work relating to the University of Limerick?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: The reason I ask is because a board needs a strong leader to challenge the executive. Does Ms Harney feel she has the time to be able to do that and provide that leadership, considering the number of issues that have arisen at this meeting alone?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: That is fair enough. How often does the governing body meet?

- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: Is there ever any instance whereby the board would ask the executive to leave the room to deliberate on a matter?

- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: Ms Harney mentioned that there will be a new board in place in November. Can we get a note on exactly how the members of that board will be appointed, the bodies that will be represented and how it will be constructed? My final question is to the Comptroller and Auditor General. It relates to the former president's package. Earlier, the representatives from the university indicated...

University of Limerick Financial Report 2020 (12 May 2022) Matt Carthy: I hope we can all be as successful as Mr. Harney afterwards.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (12 May 2022)
Matt Carthy: There is not much to say. Again, the issue of commercial sensitivity in respect of the hospital is being cited as reason for not providing this committee with a report that was previously promised to us before its publication. For the life of me I do not understand how if there is a contract in place, the publication of a report into that contract could result in commercial difficulties....
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (12 May 2022)
Matt Carthy: I do not have much comment other than to say that this correspondence should be a template for other agencies and Departments as to how to answer questions because, in fairness, the NTA answered the questions comprehensively and succinctly where necessary and should be commended for that. It is to be hoped others will follow suit. It is refreshing to put questions to an organisation and to...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (12 May 2022)
Matt Carthy: You have asked a number of the questions, Chairman. We were informed, if I recall correctly, that the target of 60,000 premises to be passed by March was still in place at the time of our hearing. My understanding is that the most up-to-date figures we have received are that 41,000 premises or thereabouts were passed. I think that those figures relate to last month and that only a little...
