Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Discussion (25 Apr 2018)

Jack Chambers: I know it is a complex area with the Office of Government Procurement and the interaction that occurs with organisations. It is important that a line is drawn under this and the organisation is projected toward full compliance. That should be an aim. I would be disappointed if we were to say here as a committee or as an organisation of the State that we will never be compliant. Legacy...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: Garda Oversight and Accountability: Discussion (25 Apr 2018)
