Alan Kelly: Given the evidence we have heard previously on what the Commissioner was told in July 2015, which is disputed by different evidence we have heard from many different witnesses, would the Comptroller and Auditor General have expected to be informed of matters that were being examined or investigated internally prior to the completion of an investigation? In other words, we now know the...

Alan Kelly: With regard to the role of Accounting Officer, the Comptroller and Auditor General has told us that even with basic information he would have expected to have been told. We can debate how much she knew, but Ms O'Sullivan has accepted she had knowledge. Why is there a letter of 31 July that does not make any reference to it?

Alan Kelly: It is alarming. I will ask the Comptroller and Auditor General if it is an appropriate defence for any Accounting Officer to say they would not inform him of potential issues no matter how limited or basic the information is, which the Comptroller and Auditor General has just answered. Is it a defence to say they are gathering materials and all materials are not available to them so they...

Alan Kelly: There was a discussion in July 2015. I think the Commissioner should reconsider publishing the letter from Ken Ruane. As Chairman of the committee here today I will officially ask her to reconsider that. It is her own decision but I am just asking her officially. It would be helpful to everyone and it would be in the interest of transparency. We will certainly be having a conversation...
