Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach (3 May 2018) Marc MacSharry: There is a lot in the media today about 11 cases in particular. I know I am putting Mr. Fraser on the spot, but would updates have been provided on them to senior Ministers or the Taoiseach?

- Public Accounts Committee: 2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach (3 May 2018) Marc MacSharry: I did not ask Mr. Fraser what material. I asked him if it would be normal, if there are cases of this nature that are ongoing, for there to be a pathway for the Taoiseach or Mr. Fraser to be informed of what is going on. I am not asking whether they knew about case A or B and identifying it. I am just asking if it is reasonable to expect that the Cabinet of the day, of whatever party,...

- Public Accounts Committee: 2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach (3 May 2018) Marc MacSharry: Okay, that is very good, so we will be able to pursue that in another way. Could we write to the Taoiseach as opposed to the Secretary General and ask if any of the quarterly updates that were provided on State claims in recent years included any mention of the terrible cases we are reading about in the media this week? I will leave that issue.

- Public Accounts Committee: 2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts

Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach (3 May 2018) Marc MacSharry: Right. We do not know because there has been no inquiry yet. I am just trying to inform myself of what processes exist.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach (3 May 2018) Marc MacSharry: In fairness, Mr. Fraser has not avoided the question at all. He has told me there are quarterly updates provided to the Government of cases in the State Claims Agency. That is important for us to know. We now know there is a process. I asked Mr. Fraser if he is the first person to know. Does it land on his desk before it goes to the Cabinet? Again, we are not talking about the contents...

Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach (3 May 2018) Marc MacSharry: Mr. Fraser has said he has no knowledge of these cases, which I accept, but that there is a process whereby either the Department of Finance, a group or perhaps the State Claims Agency, in conjunction with the Department, sends to the Government a quarterly report on all sensitive cases and that he will send the committee a note on the process.

Vote 2 - Department of An Taoiseach (3 May 2018) Marc MacSharry: I thank Mr. Fraser. It does beg the question that we will be able to legitimately ask when we find out who compiles the reports as to whether these cases were mentioned in it and, if not, why not.
