Chapter 18: Department Reviews of welfare Schemes, Social Welfare Appeals Process, Social Insurance Fund (7 Dec 2017) Marc MacSharry: I do not expect Mr. McKeon to comment on policy but, from a punter's perspective, it gives a sense of political ownership to an announcement as opposed to saying it is a Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection initiative.

Chapter 18: Department Reviews of welfare Schemes, Social Welfare Appeals Process, Social Insurance Fund (7 Dec 2017) Marc MacSharry: I am right in saying it is a new initiative. Its origin is the new spin - sorry, communications - unit. We will have that across the board. When the Road Safety Authority is making an announcement, will it be the same? Will it be a Government of Ireland initiative?

Chapter 18: Department Reviews of welfare Schemes, Social Welfare Appeals Process, Social Insurance Fund (7 Dec 2017) Marc MacSharry: I am sure the opening of Stepaside Garda station had the support of the Civil Service Management Board too but that is another matter. Has there been a cross-departmental assessment or cost analysis of carer's allowance with the Department of Health, the HSE, disability services or local authorities, to see if a loosening of the criteria for carer's allowance is possible? Could we reduce,...

Chapter 18: Department Reviews of welfare Schemes, Social Welfare Appeals Process, Social Insurance Fund (7 Dec 2017) Marc MacSharry: I am not asking Mr. McKeon to advocate for it. Policy is determined and adopted by the Government, and implemented by the Department of Employment Affairs and Social Protection. However, policies are often determined by the Government having been advised by the Department. Could such a body of work be undertaken? It would be very useful for us from a Committee on Public Accounts...

I know the witness cannot commit and that policy is for the Government. However, we can certainly ask. Would Ms McGuckin ask the Secretary General that a few hours be put aside for the relevant principal officers, Assistant Secretaries General or Secretaries General to sit down and look at this. Its outcome would be something this...

What the witness could do is say this is the analysis we have done, here is what we think it would cost and here is what we think the outcome will be.
