I outlined earlier in this report that a traffic light system (red, amber, green) has been adopted
for the recommendations that emanate from the inspections. This enables public authorities to
prioritise the areas where remedial action is necessary. This year 85 recommendations were
made by my inspectors during the Other public authority inspections and this is an average of
4 recommendations per public authority. Figure 19 shows the breakdown of recommendations
by colour.
