Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (31 May 2017) Mary Lou McDonald: That is very interesting. I would have expected Mr. Howard to get back to Mr. Barrett. Did Mr. Barrett expect Mr. Howard to get back in touch with him?

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (31 May 2017) Mary Lou McDonald: Thank you for the clarification. There was more than a general commitment to get back. Mr. Howard then met the Commissioner and Mr. Barrett did not hear from him again.

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (31 May 2017) Mary Lou McDonald: The reason for this is that Mr. Howard thought, after the fact, that he needed to keep some distance.

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (31 May 2017) Mary Lou McDonald: How would Mr. Kelly have known that Mr. Howard had met with the Commissioner? Do not dance on the head of a pin. Just tell me how he knew it, with a straight answer.

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (31 May 2017) Mary Lou McDonald: Mr. Howard would have told Mr. Kelly that he met with the Commissioner. I suspected that much. Mr. Howard met with Mr. Barrett, was deeply shocked and asked him to make himself available for any subsequent meetings. He met the Commissioner and, I presume, told her how shocked he was. He informed Mr. Kelly that he had met with the Commissioner but he does not go back to Mr. Barrett. It...

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (31 May 2017) Mary Lou McDonald: We heard of that earlier. Mr. Kelly took a very different view of this meeting with the Commissioner from that portrayed by Mr. Howard. Mr. Barrett's memo of 22 July 2016 states, "I have been informed by Mr. Niall Kelly, however, that Mr. Howard had a meeting with the Commissioner in the immediate aftermath of his meeting with me." What was the immediate aftermath?

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (31 May 2017) Mary Lou McDonald: It goes on, "Mr. Kelly, who has also had sight of the historic files on the Garda College issues, alerted me to this as historically there is evidence to suggest previous efforts were made to prevent these matters moving towards the purview of the C&AG by at least one former Garda Commissioner."

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (31 May 2017) Mary Lou McDonald: Mr. Kelly was concerned and let Mr. Barrett know of the meeting with the Commissioner. Is that because he had a genuine concern that it might be part of another ruse to stymie information? The memo states that previous efforts were made to prevent these matters moving towards the purview of the Comptroller and Auditor General by at least one former Garda Commissioner. Was he concerned this...
