T6. Mr Swann asked the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs whether she agrees with comments made by Tony O'Neill, Chair of the Agri-Food Strategy Board, at a recent Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs Committee meeting, when he said, "Everybody prepares for the Public Accounts Committee before they do the project. They do two projects at once; one to implement it and the other at the same time preparing their defence. Our Public Accounts Committee, I think, has become our greatest weakness." (AQT 401/16-21)
