We will have an excellent summary of all the issues referred to by the Deputy because, as he said, we are getting bits week by week and they keep coming up so we need an annual summary.

The next item concerns Limerick and Clare Education and Training Board. Again, there was a clear audit opinion but matters drawn to our attention include the fact that the board was late in preparing its accounts and the effectiveness of the system of internal control for the period of account. That will come up in the summary to which I referred.

No. 4.4 concerns Longford and Westmeath Education and Training Board, No. 4.5 concerns Tipperary Education and Training Board, No. 4.6 concerns Donegal Education and Training Board, No. 4.7 concerns Cavan Monaghan Education and Training Board, No. 4.8 concerns Kerry Education and Training Board and No. 4.9 concerns Dublin Dun Laoghaire Education and Training Board. All have clear audit opinions. Any member is free to follow up any matter in those accounts which have been laid in the Oireachtas Library.

Nos. 4.10 and 4.11 concern The Gathering Project 2013 Limited. We have the accounts for 2014 and 2015 for which there are clear audit opinions. Nos. 4.12 and 4.13 concern the 2014 and 2015 accounts of the Dublin Regional Tourism Organisation Limited for which there is a clear audit opinion. Are those organisations still alive? There was zero turnover in some years.
