I assume the Deputy is referring to a system of verification of attendance by lawyers at Tribunals of Inquiry for the purpose of payment of fees. While the matter is one for the Tribunal I can say that the role of each relevant Department in relation to a Tribunal is to account for its overall expenditure.
