Large sums of money are involved. I understand that local authorities are audited by the Local Government Audit Service, but it does not attract the same level of public attention or transparency that would be provided by the Committee of Public Accounts. Given the large amounts of money involved, provided that the correspondent gives permission us to, would it be in order to forward it to the Local Government Audit Service and for the Committee of Public Accounts to request that we be included on any related correspondence on an ongoing basis and the results of any investigation that might take place?
