236. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform further to Parliamentary Question No. 349 of 20 June 2017, the progress he has made to date to retrieve from the National Archives the details of public bank accounts sanctioned by the Minister for Finance in each of the years 1990 to 1992 inclusive; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [35860/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department has concluded its examination of the files held in the National Archives and it has been found that there are no further records of sanction for the opening of public bank accounts for An Garda Síochána for the years 1990-1992 in the relevant files.
I can confirm, therefore, that the only public bank accounts sanctioned for opening by An Garda Síochána, by my Department, for the years 1990 to 2006 are those contained in the schedule attached to my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 349 of 20 June 2017.
