This evening, the Houses of the Oireachtas marked the centenary of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), celebrating 100 years of parliamentary scrutiny, transparency, and financial accountability since the Committee published its first full report in 1925 with the launch of an exhibition and commemorative poster.
The event, held in Leinster House, brought together the Ceann Comhairle Verona Murphy TD, current and former PAC Members, Accounting Officers, officials from the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General, academic partners, and current and former Oireachtas staff.
The programme honours a century of public oversight and the PAC’s enduring role as a pillar of democratic governance, ensuring that public money is managed responsibly, transparently, and in the best interests of citizens.
Speaking on the event, the Ceann Comhairle Verona Murphy TD said: “For more than 100 years, the Committee of Public Accounts, more commonly referred to as PAC, has cast an impartial and forensic eye on how State money is spent.
Having served on the PAC in the previous Dáil, I know first-hand the rigour, independence and dedication that define its work. The Committee’s ability to rise above politics and focus squarely on the public interest is a hallmark of its strength.
Today’s centenary is a testament to generations of Members, Accounting Officers, and staff of both the Houses of the Oireachtas and the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General, all of whom contributed to building a culture of accountability that is widely respected at home and abroad. It is a legacy of service that continues to underpin public trust in our institutions.”
Cathaoirleach of the Committee of Public Accounts John Brady TD said: “I am very grateful, as Cathaoirleach of the PAC, to be a part of this history and this important feature in Irish democracy. For 100 years, the PAC has been a guardian of the public purse and a champion of transparency in our democracy. This centenary is not only a moment to honour the diligence of those who served before us, but a reminder of the values that still guide us today: integrity, independence and service to the public interest.
As we look to the future, our work is more important than ever. Citizens rightly expect high standards of accountability, and the PAC will continue to ask the hard questions, identify emerging risks, and ensure that public funds are used wisely and well.
As we celebrate this centenary, it is important to reflect not only on the Committee’s history but on its continuing relevance. Today, the challenges we face are as complex as ever: digital transformation in public services, climate commitments, and ever-growing expectations for transparency and accountability. Citizens rightly demand that their taxes are spent wisely, and the PAC must ensure that those expectations are met.
In this environment, the PAC’s responsibility is not simply to review expenditure, but to identify emerging risks before they become failures. To ensure that lessons are not just learned, but embedded..”

This week: –2
Total: –6
An AW without a scale again--but that's what the scale said this morning when I weighed in. I didn't take a photo on the scale earlier today and then Peter came home early with a very bad case of food poisoning. I don't want to disturb him by getting on the scale in the master bathroom (the scale makes all sorts of beeping noises as does the camera).
Anyway--WOO! 2 pounds down. Gotta keep up the good work. Buying Dark Chocolate Mini Eggs at CVS today was probably not a good way to celebrate :)

2021-06-08: Florence Dennis, Division Manager at African Development Bank virtually addressing during the Open government and Accountability Webinar.
This webinar will be an overview of regulatory changes as well as culture change practices now in the new regulations. A strong professional of any discipline knows the regulations. When surveyors conduct an annual survey of a nursing home, the professionals working there are held accountable to these federal regulations. Culture change practices are best practices and assist homes to be compliant with the regulations.
