Matt Carthy: That is okay. Addressing the Chairman, we mentioned earlier on writing to various Ministers and I am aware that we have a great deal of work on the programme but there are merits in this committee considering the compiling of a report on this issue because there are so many potential benefits from it for the sector in which we have an interest. This issue crosses a number of Departments...

Vote 21 - Prisons (28 Apr 2022) Matt Carthy: I welcome our guests. We have spoken before about direct provision and responsibility for that has moved to the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth. Will Ms McPhillips comment on or explain why she believes it the case that the responsible Department has now determined so many direct provision contracts to be non-compliant? I understand these are contracts...

Vote 21 - Prisons (28 Apr 2022) Matt Carthy: If Ms McPhillips could do that, it would be useful. I am not sure if Ms McCaffrey or Ms McPhillips could answer questions about service contracts with LMC Facilities Management, a company with offices in Dublin and Tipperary. I understand that some previous deals with that company resulted in an external investigation. Will the witnesses indicate if that investigation is ongoing?

Vote 21 - Prisons (28 Apr 2022) Matt Carthy: Okay. I do not have much time. I would like to touch on the ongoing debacle relating to and the set of debacles that resulted in the killing of Shane O'Farrell in 2011. In 2019, a scoping inquiry was established instead of the full public inquiry that both Houses of the Oireachtas had unanimously called for. Considering that it is now 2022, and I assume that the witnesses will not be able...
