The Comptroller and Auditor General says he should’ve been told if there was any question of financial irregularity at the Garda training college.

The Garda Commissioner is before the Public Accounts Committee again today, where she says she was under the impression one of her colleagues would inform the state spending watchdog of irregularities at Templemore.

Noirin O’Sullivan says she was not aware of the details of the irregularities, but admitted it was her job as accounting officer to inform the Comptroller and Auditor General.

Seamus McCarthy told the PAC that he wasn’t aware of the information Commissioner O’Sullivan had, but that he should’ve been informed of irregularities.
