Go ndintar Tuarasgabháil an ArdScrúdóra i gcóir na bliana dar chríoch 31adh Márta, 1923, do chur chun “Coiste na gCuntaisí Puibli” chun í do scrúdú agus tuairisc do thabhairt uirthi. |
That the Report of the Comptroller and Auditor-General for the year ended 31st March, 1923, be referred to “The Committee of Public Accounts” for examination and report. Question put and agreed to. |
Could you fix any day on which the Committee of Selection will meet?
I think it has been the practice of the Committee of Selection to meet the day after a motion of this kind is passed, and to report to the Dáil. I am sure if the Dáil meets on Wednesday the Committee could report by Thursday. Deputy Hughes could give us some information on that matter.
I think it is a matter for the convenience of the Committee. Perhaps they could meet this evening and have a report ready for the first sitting of next week—that is, if it is convenient for the members of the Committee.
It need not be later than Wednesday next.
If we meet on Wednesday next, perhaps we could fix a day, if that would be suitable for everybody.
I rather anticipate that it will be necessary for this Committee to set about its work rather earlier than would be normally required. That is why I was thinking that the Committee could meet to-day if they are all present.
I have no objection. Possibly, we might have a preliminary meeting to-day, but we might not finish in one day. If that is suitable to Deputy Johnson and his party, we might possibly meet this evening after the Dáil rises.
