HSE Financial Statement 2015

Dr. Geraldine Smith:

It depends on the individual audits. I hope the Deputy will acknowledge that the audit of Console was absolutely unique. I do not believe we will ever come across another situation like Console. In fairness to the agencies we audit, they are usually very co-operative and provide the information we seek. They have a duty of candour and are quite truthful and open with us. Console was not like that; it was absolutely an aberration.
