Alan Kelly: We might even give a compliment in the process.
- Public Accounts Committee: Garda Internal Audit Report on ICT Directorate Payments Process (31 May 2018)
Alan Kelly: I have one observation that does not affect the lads here. It is incredible that the Policing Authority has a role in respect of anyone being appointed to any role in An Garda Síochána. It does and that is right. However, it has no role in respect of contracts of €26.5 million. That is a weakness and as legislators we need to deal with that. It is not the fault of the...

Alan Kelly: Is Mr. Ó Cualáin confident that An Garda Síochána is fully compliant with SIPO and that all legacy issues have been dealt with?
- Public Accounts Committee: Garda Internal Audit Report on ICT Directorate Payments Process (31 May 2018)
Alan Kelly: As an add-on question, so they can be answered together, we found out that in the past a number of senior ranking gardaí were directors of companies. I presume that has all ceased and appropriate action has been taken to ensure that-----

- Public Accounts Committee: Garda Internal Audit Report on ICT Directorate Payments Process (31 May 2018)
Alan Kelly: I spoke to Mr. Ó Cualáin briefly outside. I am a strong supporter of the use of closed circuit television, CCTV, on motorways. When I was Minister I gave a grant to a community in Laois and I have to say the gardaí there were excellent and the CCTV system is in place. We also gave grants for CCTV in a number of other places. They did not proceed but in fairness to the...

Alan Kelly: I understand that but can we have some clarity? I am trying to help out here because I am a huge supporter of this. I initiated such projects when I was a Minister and I used some community funding from the then Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government. I wanted to see how the experiment would work and it has been successful. People are frustrated that they cannot go...

Alan Kelly: Yes, let us try and help the Garda here. The State is going through a process of GDPR, which is transformative. It is causing a huge range of issues. We might as well deal with it once and for all. Ultimately, I would support all funding that goes into CCTV across the State and especially for motorways. The motorways are brilliant but they are a cause of crime, as we all know, because...

Alan Kelly: I have a final question and perhaps Mr. Nugent could answer. With regard to Templemore Garda College, progress has been made on the issues surrounding the sports facilities. There are some outstanding issues that are not major and I can speak directly with Mr. Nugent about these later rather than taking up the meeting. We must, however, sort out the issues around the golf club in a...
