My Department does not currently have a professional accountant post, although such a professional qualified accountant has been employed in the past for the duration of major financial management projects such as implementation of the MIF Project.

My Department does not maintain detailed records of staff qualifications, however, at least one staff member is a fully qualified accountant.
