asked the Minister for Transport and Power who will carry out the independent investigation into the affairs of the ESB which he recently announced; and when a report will be available.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - ESB Investigation
16.
Mr. O'Donnell
This is a matter which is under consideration. I will make an announcement in due course.
Can the Minister state what good it will do to have an independent inquiry into the best of the semi-State bodies? Who will carry it out and what will they investigate?
I think I have answered that question. The matter is under consideration and I will be able to give full details very shortly.
Could I urge the Minister to think twice before he has another investigation into the ESB?
It is under discussion at the moment between my Department and the ESB.
The Minister should not overwork McKinseys.
I am calling Question No. 17.
