Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Are many more charities being considered? Are there more prosecutions on the way?

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: This is an unusual question for the committee but is the regulator under-resourced in that area? I am surprised the regulator has only one dedicated staff member working on this.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: That is very good. I will ask a very big question in two minutes and I do not suppose we will get to the bottom of it. Approved housing bodies are becoming a bigger part of housing provision and they are going to become difficult. There are encumbered assets with loans against them. There are unencumbered assets where some of these houses are being bought through fund-raising and have no...

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Is it open to AHBs to change from charitable status? One of my concerns is that AHBs with charitable status may decide to change their status, which would lead to a complicated question about assets.

Public Accounts Committee: Financial Statements 2023 - Charities Regulatory Authority (17 Oct 2024)

Marc Ó Cathasaigh: Has the regulator the power to retrospectively make sure the clauses are in place?

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

Cormac Devlin: I thank the Comptroller and Auditor General's office for the report. I wish to ask about An Bord Pleanála because we have engaged with it before. The work programme may be a moot point at this stage, but it is incumbent on us as a committee to ensure that because of the reports that have been compiled on the issues relating to 2022, we have it in our sights for an engagement in the...

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

Cormac Devlin: I thank the Leas-Chathaoirleach. The Comptroller and Auditor General's office refers to reports that have been compiled on issues in 2022 and onwards. Are those reports now complete and in the Comptroller and Auditor General's possession or what stage are they at? If the reports are published and completed, that has a bearing on how this committee proceeds.

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

Cormac Devlin: I thank Ms Drinan for that. We have spoken to An Bord Pleanála before about the internal control report - the second report to which Ms Drinan referred. Allowing for the chairman to have sufficient time and also to ensure this committee is diligent in its work, I suggest that in within the first month or two of 2025 this committee would seek to engage with An Bord Pleanála on the...

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

Mairead Farrell: No, I was just agreeing to that.

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)

Cormac Devlin: I will come in on that particular piece of correspondence. As the Leas-Chathaoirleach rightly pointed out, the committee worked exceptionally hard on that report following on from the large engagement not only with RTÉ, but also with the other ancillary individuals and agencies. This is another item that needs to reoccur on our agenda as a committee. The committee was very firm about...

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.

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

Mairead Farrell: Agreed.

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

Mairead Farrell: May I come in on that?

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

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...

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

Mairead Farrell: Could we try?

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

Mairead Farrell: I absolutely agree. It is important.

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

Mairead Farrell: No.
