Vol. 1 No. 20

In Committee on the Constitution of Saorstat Eireann Bill. - ARTICLE 61.

Mr. O'HIGGINS

Article 61 reads:—"The Chamber/Dáil Eireann shall appoint a Comptroller and Auditor-General to act on behalf of the Irish Free State/Saorstát Eireann. He shall control all disbursements and shall audit all accounts of moneys administered by or under the authority of the Parliament/ Oireachtas and shall report to the Chamber/Dáil at stated periods to be determined by law." On the suggestion of Deputy Gavan Duffy we are perfectly prepared to call this man by some Irish title, and we will consult as to the best word.

Motion made and question put: "That Article 61 stand part of the Bill."

Agreed.
