Public Accounts Committee

Business of Committee

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

That is correct, Chair. It is just five of the section 38s. It is a really a question of how the section 38s evolved. Some of them evolved and were assigned to the Comptroller and Auditor General for audit. Many of them would have come out of charitable organisations or religious organisations so they would have been voluntary bodies, not part of the part of the public service, and they would traditionally have arranged their own auditors.
