chief executive Ms Kerins, who argued that the Public Accounts Committee exceeded its powers when it questioned her about her salary and the charity’s finances.
Briefing the committee, the OPLA “emphasised heavily the impact of the Kerins judgment, and how the committee must stay within its remit”, according to one source.Mr Delaney also had Ms Kerins in mind. In his statement he made clear he would not be answering questions about the FAI’s finances, his role as CEO or the €100,000 “either directly or indirectly”.
Nevertheless, it “hovers” over the FAI inquiry: “John Delaney places it in there in his statement to effectively eye-ball the committee and to set down a marker”, said Dr Hickey.
As we’ve found out to our cost statutory committees, tribunals etc., are dogs with no bite. Anyway, the Committee in this instance only has powers to compel the Sports Council to appear. So let’s stop fooling ourselves, there is no ready mechanism to tackle this type of issue.
Superb display by J D. ...he won this game on his own . But it might be over two legs so all is not lost .....yet
