A tabular schedule providing information to the Deputy on the names of State organisations under my Department whose latest accounts laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas relate to an accounting period ending more than one year and more than two years old (as specified) is set out in the table.
In relation to the accounts of statutory bodies and agencies audited by the Comptroller and Auditor General that are subsequently submitted to my Department, it should be acknowledged that the annual statutory audit process can generally require a number of months to bring to completion following the financial year-end concerned. In this regard, the annual financial statements for the period ending 31 December 2012 are anticipated to be finalised in the coming months, whereupon my Department will in accordance with the normal protocols arrange for their presentation before the Houses of the Oireachtas.
