Catherine Murphy: Which body showed non-compliance with procurement rules?
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (17 Oct 2024)
Ms Colette Drinan: The amount that was disclosed was €648,000 compared to the previous year when it was €1.2 million. There is, therefore, a downward trend. Waterford and Wexford ETB developed a corporate procurement plan in 2024 and states that it expects improvements in this space.

Catherine Murphy: It is about receiving constant updates from the Department.

Ms Colette Drinan: In terms of the question about the length of time, obviously, it really is dependent on the statutory process and the legislation being in place. From a purely operational perspective, it would be better for us if we had some notice and some certainty in terms of our own planning to make sure we have carried out the sufficient amount of planning and interim audit work we...
- Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (17 Oct 2024)
Ms Colette Drinan: Yes, and we look at that in the context of the Estimates annually. As the Leas-Chathaoirleach mentioned earlier, we have a portfolio of audits that we carry out. That changes constantly because there are mergers and new bodies created and bodies wound down. We look at that in the round and, obviously, we are aware that an audit like that is coming down through the...

- 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...
