412. To ask the Minister for Environment, Community and Local Government if he will ensure that when a communication in relation to wrongdoing is received in his Department it will be deemed to have come to his attention; if he will confirm that, while he is not expected to personally exercise the function of dealing with wrongdoing, he is responsible for ensuring that the function is exercised; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I refer to the reply to Question No. 256 on today’s Order Paper by my colleague the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform.

Correspondence received in my Department is assessed and dealt with as expeditiously as possible and brought to my attention where appropriate. Any communication purporting to allege wrongdoing by a member of staff of my Department would be investigated in accordance with relevant disciplinary procedures.
