Public Accounts Committee

Business of Committee

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

A determination is made. I examined the 2017 account and there were a number of receipts from the month of December - around 22 or 23 December - from the EU. These are moneys that arrive just before year end and they would probably be moved into the appropriate account in the first week or two of January. I intend to examine the timing of that and why there would be a delay in the recognition of where the moneys should go.
