Public Accounts Committee

National Paediatric Hospital Development Board: Financial Statements 2017

9:00 am

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

I do not remember, but I explained that, on the statement on internal control, it is a power requirement that there be a disclosure in respect of consultancies. The nature of the consultancies that it was interested in having disclosed, however, were change management-type consultancies or special investigation-type consultancies, where the consultancy expenditure that is outlined in the report is normal for the nature of the business it does. It contracts designers, project managers, cost consultants and so on.
