Public Accounts Committee
Business of Committee

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:
I certainly would agree with the ambition that the 2017 accounts would be completed as speedily as that, but we still do not have the 2016 accounts. We expect to have them resubmitted to the office in October. It will be the early part of next year before we have the 2016 accounts. There is a difficulty there, and the chairperson does acknowledge this, but we are working as quickly as possible with the ETB to get the 2015 accounts first and we expect to have them by the end of the year.
