Public Accounts Committee

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

9:00 am

Mr. Kevin McCarthy:

In a sense, it is important we conclude the review quickly and identify from it the lessons regarding spend, performance and so on for Departments. From some of the initial discussions we have had about this, and we have had initial discussions even this week with Departments about the issues Mr. McEvoy encountered, I think we can begin to identify immediately some of the things we need to do not only in terms of the preparation of the 2018 action plan, but also in terms of looking back and identifying the issues that arose.
