I will start with the Comptroller and Auditor General before moving on to Caranua. In his opening statement regarding the 2017 statements, Mr. McCarthy drew attention, not for the first time, to "weaknesses in the Board’s control over grant payments". He cites a number of examples of such weaknesses in the context of pricing quotations, a lack of evidence of invoices or receipts and issues relating to proof of tenancy or ownership of properties. These comments relate to 2017, had Mr. McCarthy reported on similar failures in the past?
