Chapter 4 - Vote Accounting and Budget Management (19 May 2022) Brian Stanley: No. Of course it is policy whether the contract is signed off or not. Mr. Moloney's predecessor, Mr. Robert Watt, flagged these concerns with the Department at that time. Some members who were on the communications committee at that time, including myself, raised those concerns. My jaw dropped when I read this letter first back in 2019 or 2020 when we got hold of it. Does the Department...

I also thank the Comptroller and Auditor General and his staff for attending and assisting the committee. Is it agreed that we request the clerk to the committee to seek any follow-up information and carry out actions agreed at the meeting? Agreed. Is it also agreed that we...

Brian Stanley: The business before us this afternoon is the minutes of our previous meeting, accounts and financial statements, correspondence, work programme and any other business. The first item is the minutes of our meeting of 12 May, which have been circulated to members. Do members wish to raise any matters in terms of the minutes? No. Are the minutes agreed? Agreed. As usual, the minutes will...

Brian Stanley: The Comptroller and Auditor General has handled that big pile of money very well.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 May 2022)

Brian Stanley: Yes.

Brian Stanley: There is also a day-to-day practical use as well.

Brian Stanley: I have had to look for information in them with regard to bog plots, turf banks, plots of turf and also plots of land that were previously in the Land Commission or attached to a local estate. Turbary rights are registered in them. There are also tenant holdings, as you mentioned. There is information regarding leasehold, freehold and the like. I am open to correction on this but we...

Brian Stanley: It is the record itself.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 May 2022)
Brian Stanley: The records are considerable. It is how accessible they are, the security of where they are, the building they are in and the maintenance of the documents, particularly if they are fragile. For example, if mice got into a building where there were paper records, enormous damage could be done over a period of time without anyone realising it.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 May 2022)
Brian Stanley: Is it agreed that we ask the secretariat to correspond with the Secretary General of the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine about that? Agreed. I thank the Deputy for that. I will proceed to the work programme.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 May 2022)
Brian Stanley: It is not on my list, Deputy.

Brian Stanley: Yes, go ahead.

Brian Stanley: I suggest, as it was not flagged, that we come back to this item, R1230, and the newspaper article in order to give members notice next week. In fairness, the Deputy is looking at it there but the members have not seen it yet. We will come back to it next week, if that is okay, and give it a proper look.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 May 2022)
Brian Stanley: That completes correspondence. Moving to our work programme, the committee will be happy to hear the following engagements have been confirmed: the Department of Health and the HSE next week on 26 May; the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth on 2 June; and the National Pediatric Hospital Development Board on 16 June. As previously agreed, the secretariat...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (19 May 2022)
Brian Stanley: Horse Racing Ireland was one that some members mentioned that we would have in. For that engagement, could we mention, in particular, one item in relation to funding for Horse Sport Ireland, which comes from Horse Racing Ireland? It may come straight from the Department. I do not know what the relationship is between those two bodies. I am not clear on that. Maybe we will have a look at...
