Public Accounts Committee

Payments to Section 39 Companies: Discussion

3:30 pm

Mr. Paul O'Toole:

We carry out an extensive set of monitoring on a monthly and annual basis. We conduct quarterly reviews. We have a capitation fee arrangement. There is a set fee per whole-time equivalent. The NLN is paid on the basis of the delivery of those whole-time equivalents over the year. Obviously, we have access to its accounts. We ensure the payments we make are consistent with the delivery of the service by the NLN. We do that on a continuous basis. We account for that fully in our operations.
