Public Accounts Committee

2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 34 - Housing, Local Government and Heritage

10:10 am

Ms Caroline Timmons:

We are willing to talk to local authorities if they feel the problem is resourcing. Some of them do not resource themselves and they resource an outside partner to do the inspections for them. The feedback is not necessarily about the resources at the minute, but we will examine that with them and, if there is an issue, we will of course address that. At the moment, it is ramping back up to where they were. They were doing very well and it is simply that Covid has interrupted. I know they are very keen to get back into that space.
