Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
(21 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: There is a unit that specifically looks at social media. What kind of numbers are in that unit?

Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
(21 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: The algorithms on my Twitter account are all over the place because I have been keeping an eye on a few things. For example, there were two arson attacks on the same building in my area. There is the same profile. It may not be the same people who are burning buildings and they may not use the same means to set them on fire but there is a commonality in respect of the transfer of...

Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
(21 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: That is after the event.

Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
(21 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: I accept I put words in Mr. Harris's mouth. I was paraphrasing.

Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
(21 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: Some of them were not intended for that use.

Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
(21 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: What additional resources are provided to the local division in terms of the intelligence gathered from social media in an area where there is a protest, such as at Crooksling, for example, where a building was set on fire? I think it was intended to be IPAS accommodation. Would the local Garda station be relied upon to have the resource itself or to use social media to track what is...

Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
(21 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: I know that.

Public Accounts Committee: Appropriation Accounts 2022
Vote 20 - An Garda Síochána
(21 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: An Garda Síochána paid €7 million but it hopes for a refund.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: There was row back on the second one because of the way it was agreed. It was not as enforceable. A degree of trust was taken that when offers were made those offers would materialise, but some of them did not.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: This would be to ask specifically about the additional amount of expenditure in this regard. A significant additional amount has been allocated and we need to keep a close eye on this aspect.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: Yes.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: It is about keeping control over claims.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: There was supposed to be legislation in this context. I think it could even have been considered during the last Dáil and Committee of Public Accounts. There was supposed to be legislation dealing with the wind-up of an organisation.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: Yes. That proposed legislation, however, never materialised.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: During the term of the last Committee of Public Accounts, what was referred to in relation to the assets to be transferred as a consequence, as part compensation, this would certainly have been on the low end compared with the State's obligation or the amount the State undertook to pay. We routinely had this item on the agenda. Some of this context went back to 2000, but the title on some...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: A second scheme came about as a consequence of the Ryan report.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: The scheme was not nailed down, though, from the perspective of the State. We were shocked, however, regarding some of the older ones and the length of time it had taken for progress to be made.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: Obviously, the EPA and Fingal County Council come into play here. Fingal County Council is not under the remit of the Committee of Public Accounts. My experience with the EPA is that there is a lot of paper-based compliance rather than hands-on compliance. Often, people feel that with the local authority, there is a bit of passing of the buck going on. In my experience, that happens quite...

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: We should satisfy ourselves on what its role is on this matter and to draw attention to the issues at hand. It is important that we actually see what they are. There may be a gap in governance and it would be useful to address the issue of the passing of the buck to each other.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (7 Mar 2024)

Catherine Murphy: To say the last meeting was unsatisfactory is a gross understatement. It went under the wire when the RTÉ issue exploded. It is essential that we have a full team, including the Accounting Officer, before the committee and that we have clarity on this organisation. There were very serious issues that we were concerned about at the previous meeting. We have to be sure they are...
