Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (20 Jun 2017) Alan Kelly: The Comptroller and Auditor General has explained why he cannot give an opinion on that, but he has stated previously that he felt that he should have been told in 2008, 2010, etc. The Commissioner was well aware, before this letter was sent, of issues relating to the Garda College. Mr. Barrett's report, which was then followed up by Mr. Ruane's legal letter, which we will not see, and then...

- Public Accounts Committee: 2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (20 Jun 2017) Alan Kelly: The Comptroller and Auditor General was not informed in 2008, 2010 or later. Ms O'Sullivan became Accounting Officer when she became Commissioner. I presume that when she was acting Commissioner she took on that role as well. The report from Mr. Barrett went in and there was a meeting on 27 July. The latter is disputed as being the first meeting. Assistant Commissioner Ó...

- Public Accounts Committee: 2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (20 Jun 2017) Alan Kelly: We have heard directly from the Comptroller and Auditor General that he feels he should have been notified long before this. He also told us that, given the information provided to her in July, he would have expected the Commissioner, who was then Accounting Officer and aware of the issues, to notify him in this letter. Ms O'Sullivan did not do so and that is a huge contradiction for us, as...

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (20 Jun 2017) Alan Kelly: We are going to have to return to the role of the Accounting Officer. If a document emerges in which allegations or declarations of issues that pertain to the documentation that was brought before the witness on 27 July are made, the role of the Accounting Officer of any organisation is very clear -there is a duty to inform the Comptroller and Auditor General.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2015 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (20 Jun 2017) Alan Kelly: Mr. Barrett compiled a report. On the basis of that report, which was discussed internally among the management team, the Commissioner received a letter from Mr. Ruane in respect of which she is claiming privilege. That is the report that we are referring to from Mr. Barrett. Everything else fell out of that. As a consequence, is the witness saying that she was not privy to the high-level...

Vote 20 - Garda Síochána - Internal Audit Report on Garda College, Templemore (Resumed) (20 Jun 2017) Alan Kelly: The point the witness is making is that what was reported to her on 27 and 28 July did not justify a report to the Comptroller and Auditor General. That is the executive summary of what happened. What is alarming is that Mr. Barrett's report, which went through Mr. Dunne and which was the basis for Mr. Ruane letter, was not brought to the witness's attention.
