Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 December 2019
468. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government if the personal injury compensation payout will be published for each county council in each of the years 2016 to 2018 and to date in 2019, in tabular form. [53782/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraLocal Authorities are independent statutory bodies responsible, through the Chief Executive and the elected Council, for the execution of executive and reserved functions. Therefore, local authorities are accountable for all expenditure incurred including for personal injury claims. I have no function in relation to the matters raised and consequently the information requested is not available in my Department. Such information should be available from individual local authorities.
