Budgetary Oversight Committee - Opening Statement by Minister for Finance, Paschal Donohoe, T.D.
Introduction
Chairperson, Members – let me begin by thanking the Committee for the invitation to appear here today to discuss the current framework for parliamentary engagement in the budgetary process.
I welcome the opportunity to discuss your interim report and I look forward to a fruitful and positive exchange.
Firstly, I note the recommendations set out in the Committee’s report and am happy to respond to those directed towards my Department, and to consider them in the context of this engagement.
I recognise that the report raises a wide range of issues from the mandate and roles of Oireachtas Committees, to the wider engagement between my Department and this Committee, and I look forward to gaining a better understanding of your perspective today.
