2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Chapter 8: Central Government Funding of Local Authorities
Local Government Fund Financial Statement 2016
Special Report No. 97 of the Comptroller and Auditor General on the Administration and Collection of Motor Taxes

Mr. John McCarthy:

Ordinarily, specific local authority issues are dealt with as part of the auditor's report back to the councillors on that authority. I am not familiar with the particular example to which the Deputy refers but those specific local authority issues should form part of the normal audit if they are of a material variety.
