The RIAI publishes an annual report each year which is available on its website at the following link:

.

This includes a certified financial report with details of income and expenditure. In addition, its annual return is filed with the Companies Registration Office.

Earlier this year my Department engaged with the RIAI on this matter and they have since provided a more detailed Directors’ report and financial statements which have been independently audited. These have been provided to all RIAI members (over 3,000). In addition, these reports have also been provided to those architects who are members of the registration body and are not RIAI members.

My Department is satisfied that the RIAI is fulfilling its’ role as the registration body for architects in accordance with the requirements of the Building Control Act 2007.
