Vote 18 - National Shared Services Office
Chapter 5 – Implementation of Financial Management Shared Services (16 Feb 2021)

Catherine Murphy: The fixed-price contract provided a degree of comfort from a budgeting perspective in respect of the cost. Lessons must be learned from that because there are other projects that are of a similar nature, for example, the payroll system in the Department of Education. The implementation partner is Accenture. An article was published last October in the Irish edition of The Times. I will...

Chapter 5 – Implementation of Financial Management Shared Services (16 Feb 2021)

Catherine Murphy: There is a short amount of time allotted for this meeting. It is difficult for all of us, including the witnesses. I acknowledge that. In respect of learning some lessons from this, if it was going to be a genuinely fixed-time contract, the scope of it would have to be future-proofed and research would have to be done to identify the differences in the entities that Ms Murphy-Fagan has...

Chapter 5 – Implementation of Financial Management Shared Services (16 Feb 2021)

Catherine Murphy: Learning from this is really important. None of us doubts there is value in this. Were the NSSO to give advice to the Department of Education which hopefully will be embarking on implementing a payroll system - and I know the this is more than a payroll system - what would Ms Murphy-Fagan advise it against doing? How would the office caution the Department based on its experience?

Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions (11 Feb 2021)

Catherine Murphy: The UK variant is now the dominant virus and we can see just how difficult it is to get the numbers down. Yesterday, there were over 1,000 positive cases, six weeks after the level 5 restrictions were imposed, with another six weeks in level 5 all but announced. There were just under 1,000 people in hospital yesterday, with the numbers in ICU remaining in the low 200s and, sadly, we are...

It came from...

The purpose of the Bill is to transpose outstanding elements of Directive 2014/62/EU on the protection of the euro and other currencies against counterfeiting by criminal law. The directive calls on member states to introduce criminal offences and sanctions...
