Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 23 November 2022
227. Deputy Paul Murphy asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if his attention has been drawn to concerns regarding irregularities in registered charities (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [58311/22]
View answerThe issues addressed to the Charities Regulator in the correspondence were responded to by that body in February 2022. It is for that body to decide as to whether discussions with the ISPCA are warranted.
A number of the issues outlined in the correspondence by the individual were previously raised with my Department in 2021. These matters were examined by my Department at that time. Following that examination, based on the information available, my Department is fully satisfied that the public funding assigned to the organisations in question has been used appropriately.
