- Public Accounts Committee: 2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 24 - Justice and Equality (4 Apr 2019) Seán Fleming: Each time I table a parliamentary question about the matter I am told that the tribunal is waiting to appoint people and that a meeting will be held shortly. It appears to be a hit and miss type of organisation. Mr. O'Driscoll is probably relying on barristers and other legal people to serve on it. Will he send us a detailed note on how it is operating? For years I have been hearing about...

Vote 24 - Justice and Equality (4 Apr 2019) Seán Fleming: Mr. O'Driscoll will come back to the committee on the historical position. My next question might amuse him, but I am looking at page 16 of the accounts. It refers to a figure of €433,000 for the Irish Film Classification Office. What relevance does it now have? We can turn on our television and social media devices. Does the office have any relevance in modern society? It...

Vote 24 - Justice and Equality (4 Apr 2019) Seán Fleming: I would have thought in this day and age that the most important aspect of what it does is what younger people are looking at such as violent games on Xbox, PlayStation and whatever else they use. I am surprised that we have all of the other classifications. When I go to the cinema, I know that a film is for over-18s or 12s, either accompanied or unaccompanied. I am looking at the...

Vote 24 - Justice and Equality (4 Apr 2019) Seán Fleming: I am more concerned about the gaps in its system, rather than accounting for the part it does. As the Insolvency Service of Ireland is audited separately, we can put questions to it separately. Mr. O'Driscoll has given us the annual report. As the back of it there are about three pages listing different organisations, some of which are statutory, while some are regulatory, appellant...

Vote 24 - Justice and Equality (4 Apr 2019) Seán Fleming: Will Mr. O'Driscoll give us a list indicating when the current agreements were signed? If he has it with him, he can circulate it. My last question is about asylum centres. I will ask Mr. Burke from the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform to respond to it also. Will they tell me what is covered? There is bed, board, accommodation, food, education and transport if people are...
