Public Accounts Committee

Report of Comptroller and Auditor General 2016
Chapter 19 - Management and Oversight of Grants to Health Agencies

9:00 am

Mr. Tony O'Brien:

For each organisation against which there are adverse audit findings these will be reflected in the oversight arrangements thereafter and amendments to the service arrangements. There will be tracking of implementation of audit recommendations and they are subject to further audit. If there is not a response to the internal audit findings the question of ongoing funding is at issue.

Deputy Cullinane drew a comparison with another place but these organisations are not part of the HSE. They are organisations that we fund. We do not control them. They are voluntary bodies and I spoke in my opening statement about the nature of the relationship. I believe the analogy-----
