Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Departmental Transformation Programme: Department of Justice and Equality (6 Nov 2019)

Jack Chambers: There is a reason I am asking. If there are 15 people in the top layer, that is major transformation in the board and the big management structure. Is that a risk in the context of the risk mentioned in the Toland report about a silo structure? With this split-level at the top management layer, does the Department risk repeating what was there previously? How is Mr. O'Driscoll preventing that?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: BusConnects: Discussion (6 Nov 2019)

Jack Chambers: Community buy-in is important with this. Other parts of Dublin have had some level of change.

The NTA has to work in...
