Public Accounts Committee

2018 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 22: Courts Service

9:00 am

Mr. Richard Fallon:

I agree totally with the Deputy and will give an example. I was involved in the processing of the Legal Services Regulation Act 2015. It contains a specific section which requires a review of its operation to be carried out every three years. That this should be the case is something we can roll into legislation as a matter of principle. We also have a new mechanism to carry out periodic critical reviews of various States bodies and related legislation to see if the legislation is being operated in the way it should be. That is a major component.
