Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (15 May 2025)

Aidan Farrelly: I thank the Comptroller and Auditor General for the presentation so far. I will make a general observation on the consistent noting of a material level of non-compliance. When I looked into the detail on some of the ETBs specifically, I started to understand why, for some of the goods and services, it might not be possible to get a contract. Does Mr. McCarthy have an overall opinion on...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (15 May 2025)

Aidan Farrelly: Can we have clarification that correspondence is going to the Pre-Hospital Emergency Care Council?

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (15 May 2025)

Aidan Farrelly: Regarding No. 61, given the investment the State has on the lands and potentially shares in the company through HRI, it would be pertinent for us to invite Horse Racing Ireland in to give some context on what seems to be a continuing loss-making venture. It would be good for us to get some context on that. With regard to No. 75, would it be possible to write to Water Safety Ireland to...
