Business of Committee

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

The first set of financial statements relates to the climate action fund for 2022. It received a clear audit opinion. No. 2, St. Angela's College, Sligo, for 2022, received a clear audit opinion. No. 3, the Credit Union Restructuring Board for 2022, received a clear audit opinion. No. 4, the National Council for Special Education for 2022, received a clear audit opinion. No. 5, Water Safety Ireland for 2022, received a clear audit opinion. However, I drew attention to a disclosure in the financial statements of a severance arrangement with the former CEO at a total cost in 2022 of just over €115,000. No. 6, the National Economic and Social Development Office for 2022, received a clear audit opinion. No. 7 is the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland, BAI, for the period 1 January 2022 to 14 March 2023. These are the cessation accounts as the BAI has been dissolved. It received a clear audit opinion. No. 8, Dublin City University for the financial year 2021-22, received a clear audit opinion, but I drew attention to the disclosure in the statement on internal control of a settlement of €500,000 to a former staff member.
