The Housing Minister says he's actively engaging with the local authority on the matter.
The Housing Minister says further investigation is needed after Westmeath County Council was subject to a half a million euro payment fraud.
The loss of €515,000 is being internally investigated, following its discovery in February.
The payments involve a single supplier and work is underway to mitigate losses to the taxpayer.
Housing Minister Darragh O'Brien says he's continuing to engage with Westmeath County Council on the matter:
