Special Report No. 78 of the Comptroller and Auditor General: Matters Arising out of Education Audits (Resumed)

1:20 pm

Dr. RuaidhrĂ­ Neavyn:

Possibly on what we have analysed as part of the second Deloitte report. The first report was produced effectively to give an idea of the overall expenditure pattern across the cost centre in the time in question. At the time this report was procured, no one had an idea of what the final figure for reimbursement costs would be. People wanted to get an idea of the scale of the problem from an independent body. That is the cost that was incurred.
