Josepha Madigan: I am a member of the CPP, in case the senior official is referred to the CPP for whatever sanction that may be.

Despite what other members may believe, as a Fine Gael member, I have always endeavoured to do that and use my own integrity and bona fides. I do not want to discredit the Chairman’s character...

UCC: Financial Statements 2013-2014 (30 Mar 2017) Josepha Madigan: It is something the university might consider. Other universities do it and other jurisdictions. Education is for life.

Josepha Madigan: I will be very brief. The Minister of State, Deputy Eoghan Murphy referred to the National Asset Management Agency Act.
