Public Accounts Committee

Business of Committee

9:00 am

Mr. Seamus McCarthy:

I would agree it is difficult to interpret them. It is really a matter for the committee itself to decide if the explanation provided is adequate. Certainly, there are a number of difficulties with it. Even some of the figures presented are minus figures but are presented without a minus sign, which is somewhat confusing. More explanation would certainly be helpful to the committee.
