PQ 110

151 Deputy Maureen O’Sullivan asked the Minister for Finance his views on whether the Paymaster General’s office, which provides a banking service to all Departments and Government offices and is assigned to him under the Ministers and Secretaries Act 1924, would be better served as an independent service under the Constitution, as in the case of the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General, rather than under the political control of the Minister for Finance in office; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
