- Public Accounts Committee: University of Limerick: Financial Statements 2019 (17 Jun 2021)
Marc MacSharry: During last night, person C made direct contact with me and has authorised me to say the following: Last night I read an article about the university meeting with the public accounts committee on 17 June 2021.
