Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

As you said, Chairman, the HSE annual financial statements for 2020 have been re-presented. There were a couple of typos in the version that was presented originally, and these have now been corrected by the HSE. They affect note 8, non-pay expenditure, specifically the figures given for transport. The HSE has now indicated a different split to what was presented previously. In note 16, inventories, there was an incorrect figure on the write-down on PPE, on the disposal of protective suits. I dealt with that matter in my opening comments when the HSE appeared before the committee.
