Public Accounts Committee

2016 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Chapter 5 - Fiscal Transparency

9:00 am

Mr. William Beausang:

This is something that I should be clear about. FMSS will be able to do this regardless of whether Government decides it wants FMSS to report on an accrual basis. Taking the Secretary General's timeline, within a two-year period the integrative system will be there which can report on an accruals basis.
