Public Accounts Committee

2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General
Chapter 7 - Dormant Accounts Fund

9:00 am

Mr. Kevin McCarthy:

I think that at that point the responsibility had transferred to us as a Department; therefore, it became our responsibility to meet whatever statutory requirements were in place. We may have had a view on whether something that had not happened in the past should have happened, but certainly it was our responsibility from that point.
