Seán Fleming: They seem to have dealt with some of these issues.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (6 Jul 2017)
Seán Fleming: It is the final appendix. There are 17 pages in that. In fact, both UCC and CIT provided the same report. I see a reference to the internal audit committee in the reply from UCC also. During the course of the next couple of hours, we might have an opportunity to review that in private session at least. They appear to have provided good information. That is UCC, CIT and some information...

Seán Fleming: No.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (6 Jul 2017)
Seán Fleming: My understanding is that this is unsolicited information that Mr. Barrett, having watched the proceedings, has sent directly to us. We did not ask him for it but he supplied it of his own volition.

Seán Fleming: Correct.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (6 Jul 2017)
Seán Fleming: Yes. We will have no more public meetings so we have to conclude. If there are issues on which we cannot conclude then we will just have to state that and consider them for further examination in part two of our report, which will be carried out after the summer recess. Finally, we come to No. 663(i). This is from Mr. John Nugent, chief administrative officer, and concerns various...

Seán Fleming: There is.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (6 Jul 2017)
Seán Fleming: The letter we received today is short and contains three or four specific items. There is only a paragraph on each item so the information is easily absorbed.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (6 Jul 2017)
Seán Fleming: More information arrived this morning. We are down to a shortlist but we will specifically deal with the information requested. If this committee did not receive the full level of co-operation expected then that in itself will be an issue in our final report. I am putting that on the record here now. To corroborate what Deputy Cullinane just said, this letter from Mr. Culhane would never...

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (6 Jul 2017)
Seán Fleming: There is some very good information in Mr. Barrett's correspondence but much of it is his personal opinion, which we have not fully tested. There are a lot of remarks about other people and we have not tested these either. I do not expect that we will be able to include this as part of an appendix to a published report of the Committee of Public Accounts. We will have to discuss this. We...

We will hold off on any further discussion of the Garda report because we want to get through the rest of the stuff, but we will be back to it next Tuesday.
