2021 Financial Statements of the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Discussion

9:30 am

Dr. Ciaran Byrne:

It is a selected number. We have a very targeted risk-based approach concerning inspections. For example, when we get new contractors in, they would typically have a higher level of inspections. Where we have found issues with existing contractors, they earn themselves penalty points, which will bring them into the target regime for additional inspections. On the fully-funded scheme, we inspect every home, to the best of my knowledge, and then on the individual measures scheme, we again risk-base the contractors, look at their performance and then relate that to the inspection level.
