Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 4 October 2005
323 Mr. Lowry asked the Minister for Communications, Marine and Natural Resources if he will review the procedures in place within An Post in the event of auditors visiting an office; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26268/05]
View answerThe procedures in place within An Post in the event of auditors visiting are in the first instance a matter for the company. However, the annual report and audited accounts of the company, including the auditor's report, are presented before each House of the Oireachtas on an annual basis in accordance with sections 32 and 33 of the Postal and Telecommunications Services Act 1983. The annual report and audited accounts are submitted to me by An Post in accordance with the corporate governance guidelines set out by the Department of Finance.
