Special Report 82 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Financial Management and Reporting for Fishery Harbour Centres
11:10 am
Mr. Tom Moran:
As I said at the beginning, the Department inherited the fishery harbours and they brought with them a series of legacy issues. I have outlined the major improvements in structure, governance, controls, computerisation, simultaneous billing and so on. I am considerably happier about the situation, having dealt with it as we have since taking it over. There is room for improvement. I would not directly answer the question other than to point to the substantial improvements which have been made, as the Comptroller and Auditor General acknowledged.
