Mr. Seamus McCarthy:
First we have the Commission for Regulation of Utilities for 2024. It received a clear audit opinion.
Next, we had the financial statements of Teilifís na Gaeilge for 2024. It received a clear audit opinion.
No. 3 is the financial statements of the Approved Housing Bodies Regulatory Authority for 2024. It received a clear audit opinion.
No. 4 is the financial statements of the Land Development Agency for 2024. It received a clear audit opinion, but I drew attention to an undue payment of €420,000 made to an existing supplier due to human error, which was subsequently recovered. I also drew attention to a material level of procurement non-compliance.
No. 5 is the financial statements of An Bord Pleanála for 2024. It received a clear audit opinion.
No. 6 is the financial statements of the Kerry Education and Training Board for 2024. It received a clear audit opinion.
No. 7 is the financial statements of the Social Insurance Fund for 2024. These also received a clear audit opinion. I drew attention to a number of chapters in my annual Report on the Accounts of the Public Services 2024, in which chapters 16, 17, 18 and 24 all relate to matters concerning the Social Insurance Fund. I imagine the committee will wish to examine that in due course.
