Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Local Government Audit Service: Discussion
Ms Niamh Larkin:
-----of how we deal with issues in audit reports, we have a mechanism - involving audit reports and our management letters - whereby anything raised in those letters is carried forward to the following year and forms part of our risk profile for that local authority for that year. We do, therefore, have a mechanism to deal with an issue with a local authority and for tracking and following it up. It is dealt with as part of the overall audit. Regarding the incident mentioned by Deputy O'Dowd, I am aware of what he is talking about and we have responded.
