Public Accounts Committee
Business of Committee

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:
The first set of financial statements is that of the Medical Council for 2021. It received a clear audit opinion.
No. 2 is the statement of City of Dublin Education and Training Board for 2021. That received a clear audit opinion but I drew attention to non-compliance with procurement rules. I think the figure in that case was about €2.5 million. There is some detail given in the financial statements about that.
No. 3 is the statement of Kerry Education and Training Board for 2020. There was a delay in the completion of the production of the accounts. It received a clear audit opinion.
No. 4 is the statement of the Adoption Authority of Ireland for 2021. That received a clear audit opinion.
No. 5 is the statement of the National Economic and Social Development Office for 2021. It received a clear audit opinion.
No. 6 is the statement of the Environment Fund for 2021. It received a clear audit opinion.
No. 7 is the statement of the Climate Action Fund for 2021. It received a clear audit opinion.
There are two sets of financial statements that were, it appears, presented late. Those of the Medical Council, which were certified by my office on 30 June, were presented only on 16 January. Those of the Adoption Authority of Ireland, signed at the end of June, were presented only on 19 January. In line with the committee's policy, it may want to seek an explanation in relation to those.
