The state's spending watchdog says the government might have lost out on extra cash over the sale of the Government Jet.

The Comptroller and Auditor General says there should have been a tendering process when the jet was sold off last year.

The Gulfstream jet was sold for 418,000 euro - with another 53,000 raised when spare parts were sold.

But an informal valuation found the plane could have been worth up to 750,000 - while the spare parts were worth over 400,000.
