Public Accounts Committee

Payments to Section 39 Companies: (Resumed) Rehab Group

10:55 am

Mr. Keith Poole:

When we do the annual return for the charitable lotteries fund, we state to what specifically it is being allocated. The Deputy has seen the returns. It is primarily capital expenditure and it also goes against a few other items. To satisfy the Department of Justice and Equality, we must show it in our accounts as cash received, so we show it in our turnover.
