.. but still no one takes responsibility for past errors
Submitted by Anonymous on Sat, 2010-07-10 01:11.The fact of the matter is that the internal auditor doesn't know how many contract are unsigned or unmonitored, since they only checked a sample of 10 out of 500 and gave up before the results became too embarrassing for all involved.
the sample were from the top 500 contract's by value, so comparing the contracts with bus tickets is disengenous at best tho maybe not surprising since cllr gilbert was was the Executive Member for Finance when these unsigned contracts were made and not monitored and triplicate invoices were being paid out on.
Cllr Gilbert seems to forget that PWC gave the council a 'no assurance rating' on invoicing and he specifically didn't not try to find out the full extent of the losses on duplicate and triplicate invoicing at the audit meet last week
