Mr. Robert Watt:

The Accounting Officer system and the responsibility of the Accounting Officers to discharge their responsibilities to this committee on foot of reports from the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General are a fundamental part of what Deputy Carthy was referring to. It is core to it because Accounting Officers have sanction and legal responsibilities based on that sanction.
