Other demands included telling the banks not to give any information about the agency to employees of the tribal council, and segregating the child welfare agency's payroll from that of the tribal council. That included no longer allowing the tribal council to manage the payroll. Concerns about the connections to the Southeast Regional Development Council appear to run so deep [Elsie Flette] even demanded that if "there is a possibility that a related third party connected to SERDC intends to submit a bid (for the payroll services), the tendering process will be managed by the Southern Authority.'' The agency was also required to tender out its audit for the 2007/08 fiscal year and that the tendering process and audit "is not to involve any person in the employ, at any capacity, of the...

We maintain that she has done everything transparently and with the authorization and with the board," said Mark Toews, [Linda Constant]'s lawyer. "I'm concerned about the accuracy of some of the information presented to the audit. In spring of 2008, the provincial Conservatives raised questions about Cree Nation, triggering a series of revelations that senior staff and board members spent heavily on per diems and travel, including a 2006 luxury getaway in Niagara Falls and a meeting in Kelowna, B.C.. And, CEO Linda Constant was given a $30,000 van instead of a raise. Allegations that Constant hired unqualified family members also surfaced.

Changes in auditing techniques that have taken place in Britain since the Victorian era, an area of study hitherto neglected by accounting historians, are discussed and detailed. In so doing, it is hoped that an increasing knowledge of past practices will put the current processes into context. The source material for the paper includes new evidence from a program of oral history and postal questionnaires, together with more traditional sources such as the trade journals and textbooks. The so-called bookkeeping audit of vouching and checking postings and castings, and with the auditor also doing a fair proportion of the client's accounting, was typical down to the 1960s. Major changes then took place, including a decline in accounting work, an increased focus on the balance sheet, and a...

Food expenses filed for events in which meals were included, liquor expenses submitted without any supporting bills and a lawyer paid for work that could've been done for almost free, are just a few of the problems uncovered by an audit of the RM of La Broquerie. [Carol Bellringer]'s audit was sparked by a 2005 incident in which then-reeve Ken Mantie was locked out of council chambers during a dispute over why a local hotel was getting snow removed from its parking lots by the RM free-of-charge. Bellringer found the RM did provide free snow clearing to a local hotel in which the RM's former chief administrative officer and two councillors had a financial interest. The audit also found no evidence the former CAO and the councillors influenced the decision to provide free snow clearing.

In an equally scathing response, the former head of the agency claims the auditors don't understand fleet management or even what Winnipeg's special operating agencies are supposed to do. The agency's former chief operations officer rejects most of the 121-page audit. Yvan Lupien, who left Winnipeg for a job with the City of Ottawa in 2009, has penned a 156-page response that suggests the auditors are pursuing some kind of agenda on behalf of senior city officials. Lupien writes that anyone who reads the audit as well as his response "will see that the original report is biased, based on false premises and often presents as evidence 'facts' that are simply in error or out of context.
