Mr. Colin Bray:

The 2012 accounts, as per normal activity, were submitted to the Comptroller and Auditor General at the end of February. A number of activities that occurred during that period can explain some of the delay.

We had a change in the Ordnance Survey Ireland, OSi, board and so there was a period of a number of months there. In addition, in laying those accounts before the House, there was a delay in respect of the summer recess and that is the reason they came before the summer recess.
