The Commission is unable to provide information beyond the material covered in its published report.
TAIC has received correspondence between 1 December 2023 and 9 February 2024 from the Ministry of Transport, regarding the Fiscal Sustainability Programme, including savings required by TAIC.
We have been working on how the Commission can support agencies and entities across the system with change decisions and implementation.
