Public Accounts Committee
2021 Financial Statements of the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland: Discussion

Mr. Barry Quinlan:
One figure was mistaken. A lot of the figures in it were correct so I understand that one figure was mistaken. A lot of the checks we would do involve comparing the grants and funding that came from the Department with what was in the accounts. A lot of that was accurate so it was a place where two figures would be summed. We are going back to those processes and an extra level of checking will be done on those accounts when they come in. In my time in the Department I have not come across another case where this happened, and I have dealt with a lot of annual reports from different bodies, etc.
