Jim O'Callaghan (FF), Dublin Bay South

I thank Deputy Kenny for his question. I am not aware of the full details he has outlined. I am aware it is an issue that is being considered by Government. I am conscious that what the Deputy said happened did happen at the Committee of Public Accounts when there was an examination of the report. The report provides a detailed assessment of governance and control weaknesses within the IFI over the period 2019 to 2023.
The Government believes that the C and AG findings are entirely unacceptable and it is appropriate that the IFI is subject to rigorous examination on these matters. I cannot answer the specific issue the Deputy raised about a driving licence in respect of an individual but I will raise it with my colleague, the Minister of State, Deputy Timmy Dooley, who has responsibility in this area.
