Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Catherine Murphy: Is it then on the individual or the company?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Catherine Murphy: It is the company. If that company fundamentally changes, such as where there is a front person and they get a tax clearance certificate and then the beneficial owner comes in and swaps in their name, is the Department required to be notified of those kind of changes? Some of these look like Lanigan's Ball.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Catherine Murphy: Will Mr. McCarthy give us a note on the tax clearance approach in order that we can go into it in greater detail? So much of this is internal. The Comptroller and Auditor General will probably be the one who sees more detail. Would he see those inspection reports about non-compliance? We saw one last week that gave us significant concerns and details. What does he see? Is there...

Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Catherine Murphy: Is that on samples?
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Catherine Murphy: On the same matter, the Department obviously gets these reports. Does it go through the reports? What is the sanction where high levels of non-compliance and serious concerns are found? There are people who have been in hospitality, which is a different thing, but there are others involved in this who have had no relationship in dealing with individuals. I would regard the word...

Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Catherine Murphy: Mr. McCarthy has told us they have not done any on the international protection side.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Catherine Murphy: When he tells us the number of inspections, does that include repeat inspections? Deputy Munster looked for information on that. Are there premises that have been inspected multiple times and have shown failures?

Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth (18 Apr 2024) Catherine Murphy: I ask that we be provided with that breakdown. It is important.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: I have a few follow-up questions for her. Will that programme be available on a part-time basis? Will it be open to graduates or mature students? What are the criteria for eligibility? It would be useful to get those. It is a welcome development but I would like to get some extra information.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: Is there a proactive or a reactive approach? For example, does the NCSC have any role in auditing risks in various Departments and does it follow up on issues that are identified? We are thinking about mitigating risks so we are taking a preventative approach rather than a reactive approach when something happens. I know there are attacks all of the time but, in practical terms, I would...

Catherine Murphy: With regard to carrier liability, which is dealt with on page 6, how would this be enforced outside our own jurisdiction? Are things identified in this regard? Is draft legislation being prepared and is there a timeline for that? That is obviously for the Department. It would be useful for us to ask to be kept informed on the progress.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: I want to ask about the process of doing that. Does the Comptroller and Auditor General need to be informed who the Accounting Officer is?
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: Local authorities are being grant-aided to work and then the money is sometimes returned. They are notified but they do not get the time to do it. The multi-annual budgeting aspect is probably the key issue in that.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: It tends to be for the active travel initiatives. They get a notification that they can apply for a grant and get it. Then they cannot find anyone to carry out the work - the procurement process is very long - and the money goes back to the Department. It would be useful to include that. Lead-in time is needed for any of these things.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: There is an unequal distribution of staff resources across the country. Some of that is for historical reasons. As the population grows, the staff component does not grow and there is an impediment to growing it by virtue of the fact that artificial baselines are included in local government funding, especially as it relates to local property tax. Doing it in house is just not an option in...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: Yes, but very often if you are going to make an application - I accept the point that an engineer has to be appointed and that it is difficult to recruit them - it may be that it has to happen via a regional office which would have expertise that can be drawn on.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: There are issues. We should put it on that list. Local authorities are not even applying when they have viable projects because they cannot spend the money within the timeframe.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (18 Apr 2024)
Catherine Murphy: Yes.
