Public Accounts Committee

2022 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth

Mr. Kevin McCarthy:

Two things. Support and training for providers where it is a simple issue of not understanding what the requirements were or not meeting the requirement to provide information where it should have provided information. It is about issues of that nature. If it is a question of overcharging or wrong reporting of attendance, etc., there is a facility within our early years platform for rectification within that funding periods, so providers will rectify themselves and the recruitment happens immediately.
