Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

A number of the education and training boards have raised concerns around the adequacy of internal audit arrangements. That refers to an unusual arrangement in place in those institutions where there is an agency located in Cavan-Monaghan which provides internal audit services and which became understaffed. That has been addressed, but each institution has a concern that insufficient internal audit was carried out in 2017.
