Public Accounts Committee

Business of Committee

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

No. Every year the governing body is required to consider its ability to continue to operate as a going concern and it should only present its statements on the basis that it can continue as a going concern, if it believes that to be the case. A number of colleges have raised a concern that, because they have deficit situations, something has to be done to resolve that if they are to continue.
