Chapter 4 - Overview of Public Private Partnerships (22 Mar 2018) Marc MacSharry: It would be possible if the person concerned coincidentally happened to have an interest in science but also happened to be mechanical or electrical engineer. Let us say they were not an engineer, nor a contract manager, and had no experience of project management but were a scientist, would Mr. Cahillane seek them out?

Chapter 4 - Overview of Public Private Partnerships (22 Mar 2018) Marc MacSharry: It seems that was the case with the National Maritime College. That is a problem, considering the difficulties that have emerged since.

Chapter 4 - Overview of Public Private Partnerships (22 Mar 2018) Marc MacSharry: I will give it to Mr. Ó Foghlú. KPMG was not giving it but I have it here. I will certainly be happy to give it to him. Incidentally, I know from other engagements here, and we will be going back to them directly, that CIT has a history of lavish parties. Was Mr. Ó Foghlú at the retirement party for this individual?

Chapter 4 - Overview of Public Private Partnerships (22 Mar 2018) Marc MacSharry: Through the Chair, I realise that as Secretary General of a Department you get to direct a lot of what goes on, but you do not direct what goes on in this room, whether you like it or not.

Chapter 4 - Overview of Public Private Partnerships (22 Mar 2018) Marc MacSharry: I will tell you why it is relevant. There are huge issues with this particular institute. It seems not only to go to building of things, public-private partners, re-employment of people, throwing out lavish amounts of public money, which is what this committee is about. This committee is about taxpayers' money, Mr. Watt, and we are here to question that whether you like it or not. If that...
