KnowledgeHUB Priority Support Retainer Service – Obligations, Requirements and Limitations

OPSS will provide you with technical support in response to your specific query. You and/or your practice/company are responsible for providing accurate and complete information in relation to the query presented.

OPSS will respond to your query on a timely basis after initial contact with our helpdesk. As requested by you in your initial interaction with our helpdesk the query will be answered by telephone or in writing. The opinion of OPSS in responding to the query is purely the professional opinion of OPSS and their staff based on their knowledge and the information provided by you. You are solely responsible for providing all information required for the purposes of answering the query. Our process requires you to provide the information and our team will request all relevant information. When we provide an answer, this professional opinion may differ from the opinion of the governing accountancy Institutes & Associations and their compliance officers and / or third parties / the Revenue Commissioners and the firm/company and its partners/employees are solely responsible for exercising ultimate professional judgment in all areas.

Your Firm/Company is also responsible for taking any necessary actions required in their professional judgment to comply with the applicable legislation, standards, enactments and rules and regulations along with the requirements, rules, and regulations of your governing Institute/Association if applicable. OPSS do not accept any responsibility or cannot give a definitive opinion on any query submitted. To the fullest extent permitted by the courts of Ireland OPSS are not liable in any way for any action or inaction arising out of this consultation and the query response provided.

OPSS will endeavor to provide you with technical support in accordance with the guidelines and regulations as set out by the relevant Accountancy Institutes / Associations in Ireland, auditing standards as promulgated by the Auditing Practices Board, financial reporting standards as promulgated by the Accounting Standards Board and company law, general law, HR and tax law as it applies to Irish companies, directors and officers.

The scope of our advice and the query responses we provide is limited to the information provided by you and the scope of any oral or written responses provided by us. Our responses do not constitute a reaffirmation of any audit or legal opinion.

Our technical query response and any supporting documentation and information produced as part of the query process and associated reports produced, are made solely for the confidential and internal use of your Firm/Company. Our query responses may not be circulated to third parties without prior express written permission. OPSS owes nor accepts any duty to any other party and shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or expense of whatsoever nature, which is caused by reliance on our query responses or reports produced.

OPSS does not accept any responsibility or cannot give a definitive opinion on the standard of any work done, which may be part of, or become part of, the quality control process of the Irish Accountancy Institutes/Associations.

Any views expressed by us are subject to the fact that regulations, standards, legislation and tax law can be ambiguous and open to more than one interpretation. Many areas of regulations, standards, legislation and tax law are the subject matter of clarification by decisions of the courts and accordingly there is always a risk that the courts might on future occasions disagree with the interpretation placed on legislation by OPSS.

KnowledgeHub provides a retainer query support service. KnowledgeHub is not intended to be a methodology to resolve complex queries. Specifically excluded from the KnowledgeHub query support service are issues in relation to audit opinions, disciplinary defence, tax planning papers, succession planning papers, or restructuring. If your query is outside the scope of KnowledgeHub or as your query develops it becomes a query that is beyond the capacity of the basic retainer service, you will be informed of the fact by the KnowledgeHub team.
