Mr. Seamus McCarthy:
I have very little to call out in this batch anyway. No. 45 on the list is the State property miscellaneous deposits account. This received a clear audit opinion. No. 46, the Travellers' Protection Fund investment account, received a clear audit opinion. No. 47, the land bond winding-up account, received a clear audit opinion. No. 48, the local loans fund, received a clear audit opinion. No. 49, the climate action fund, received a clear audit opinion. No. 50, the intestate estates fund account, received a clear audit opinion. No. 51, the National Training Fund, which is a very substantial account with a turnover of €1.1 billion and a fund balance of €1.5 billion, received a clear audit opinion. No. 52, the insurance compensation fund, received a clear audit opinion. No. 53, the circular economy fund, which is a new fund with the first period of accounts relating to 1 July 2023 to 31 December 2023, received a clear audit opinion. No. 54, the public trustee account, received a clear audit opinion. No. 55 is the biggest account we audit. The Account of Receipt of Revenue of the State collected by the Revenue Commissioners for 2024, with a turnover of €153 billion, received a clear audit opinion. I should say that the public trustee account also relates to 2024. It is one of the earliest of the 2024 accounts.
