The information in relation to to 2023 Accounts and Annual Reports for the bodies and agencies under my aegis that have yet to issue my Department with their most recent audited financial accounts or annual report is detailed in the table below.

National Concert Hall No No
National Gallery of Ireland No No

The timelines for the preparation and submission of annual reports and accounts of these bodies is set out in the relevant legislation relating to each body. I am advised that this work is ongoing in the usual manner and it is expected that those most recent audited financial accounts and annual reports currently outstanding will be submitted to the Department in the usual manner following completion of the audit by the Comptroller and Auditor General or other appointed auditors as appropriate.
