I thank Mr. McCarthy for his presentation. Apart from the annual accounts of the public bodies he oversees, I am curious about the value for money reports and the special reports. By what process does the Comptroller and Auditor General select topics or subjects for the reports and what scope is there for the Committee of Public Accounts to request that he make a particular selection?
