Statement by the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform
Dail Éireann — 2023-01-18
============================================================

Paschal Donohoe (FG), Dublin Central

I reiterate my recognition that because I did not know that payments had been made to those individuals, due to that I did not review my election submission form. That was my mistake and I accept responsibility for it. I reiterate my apology again for it.
Many, many other questions have been put to me this evening beyond that, on real points of detail which I have done my best to answer in the submission that has now been provided to SIPO. It is now up to SIPO to engage on this. I will engage with SIPO-----
