One of the things I noted, one to which Mr. Kevin McCarthy drew attention, is that statutory responsibility for the Dormant Accounts Fund was transferred to the Department when it was established. Since the fund was created, this function has been transferred a number of times. When the Department assumed statutory responsibility for the fund, what explanation was it given for the absence of a review in advance of the transfer of this function to the new Department?
