- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Yes, in order to acquire status.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Okay, but from the regulator's press statement there was the suggestion there were three that were using section 110. Ms. Delaney may wish to come back on that. I am just asking these questions because it is something I have a long interest in and it has been in the public eye. The Department of Finance did a review of section 110 in its entirety in the last year. Did it at any point ask...
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Okay. On the back of this, I ask the regulator to come back to the committee with detail. It could look back to 2017 and see what the story is with those three structures and whether there have been any others. An Teachta Verona Murphy outlined the concern about the amount of staff the regulator has to look through 11,060 charities and whether it has enough funding to be able to look at...

Mairead Farrell: The regulator.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: It is €79,000. I had just assumed. At least the regulator has moved from having a deficit to a surplus. I raise the issue of Stewarts Care, which was investigated by the HSE. I am just wondering what role the Charities Regulator had and why there was no charity regulator involved in any investigation.
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: At any point does Ms Delaney feel that she would like to have greater powers in that respect? Does Ms Delaney think it would be of benefit if the Charities Regulator had the funding and the resources put into it?
- Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: That is fair. Following up from my colleague Deputy Brady's query about gathering data on CEO remuneration, obviously we see so many fantastic charities across this State that put huge work in, and so many people are constantly supporting it, but there have been times when people have had concerns about the remuneration of CEOs. That is something that has had quite a focus placed on it,...

- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (17 Oct 2024)

Mairead Farrell: One of them relates to bogus self-employment.
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: I would be interested because, obviously, it is really important that RTÉ comes under the remit of the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General. How long in general would it take for a body to come under its remit? How long does that take on the Comptroller and Auditor General's side? Is it just simply that we are waiting on the Bill? The other thing that stood out to me with...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Yes, it is agreed. Realistically, it will probably be a very long meeting because there is a very large amount to go through but it is very important so it is absolutely agreed.

Mairead Farrell: Will we still be here?
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (17 Oct 2024)
Mairead Farrell: Is there any possibility of getting the board in at another time that week? I am just concerned. We obviously have no idea when the election will be called but that is the week the Finance Bill is due to be discussed in the finance committee and the election could potentially be called the following week. If this has been outstanding for this long and if it is such an issue of public...
