The Comptroller and Auditor General's examination of the issue found that the systems in place in the National Shared Services Office do not provide the necessary management information to allow for effective management of overpayments. At the end of 2016, there were 388 cases, at a value of €1.1 million, outstanding for more than a year with no recoupment plan in place. In addition, the reported year-end figure does not include all overpayments. Has Ms Murphy-Fagan any comment on those three findings?
