Public Accounts Committee

2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs

9:00 am

Dr. Fergal Lynch:

There are a couple of points there and I shall clarify some things. In most cases where over-claims were identified, they occurred in instances where children did not attend for the same numbers of hours. It was not that they were not attending at all, but that they did not attend the full number of hours.
