Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2023
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025)

Paul McAuliffe: I thank all of our witnesses for being here today. I will touch on a point raised by the previous speaker with regard to joint policing committees. The Commissioner might be aware that joint policing committees continue to meet in Dublin city on the basis that the Minister indicated that they could continue to do so on a transitional basis while CSPs were being established. That is the case.

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025)

Paul McAuliffe: Statistics are often presented at those meetings. Presentations are also made with regard to policing matters and questions that have been lodged in advance are answered. Is it the Commissioner's view that this should continue to happen where those statutory meetings are held?

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025)

Paul McAuliffe: The local policing forums that sat under the joint policing committees essentially provided intelligence and input as regards those local issues. I will raise an issue of concern.

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025)

Paul McAuliffe: That cash would obviously take multiple forms but ultimately it will be legitimate Central Bank-issued cash that has been verified and all of the rest of it. There might also be forged cash and so on. Does An Garda Síochána differentiate the cash in that way?

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025)

Paul McAuliffe: We have dealt with many organisations here where the cash retained by the organisation should have been accounted for and the details made available to the Committee of Public Accounts if that body was accountable to it. It is really concerning that, when I ask what cash An Garda Síochána has on hand in this system, those details cannot be provided and that An Garda...

Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána (26 Jun 2025)

Paul McAuliffe: Agreed. Ultimately, I know, that cash is lodged to the Exchequer at the end of court proceedings. Very substantial figures have been transferred by the Garda National Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau. I think I saw a figure of €30 million. Is that correct?
