Public Accounts Committee

2012 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 39 - Health Service Executive

4:25 pm

Mr. Tony O'Brien:

Yes and the reason for that is that unlike the section 38 agencies, we have direct access to that information; our internal audit regularly reviews these things; we are subject to the Comptroller and Auditor General's direct auditing unlike these agencies; and I am able to place reliance on those things. In addition, we control the payroll and can see it. We cannot see the payroll in these entities.
