Audit Scotland budget approved Print E-mail
Monday, 17 December 2007

The Scottish Commission for Public Audit has today recommended that the Scottish Parliament approve Audit Scotland’s budget proposals for 2008-09.

Commenting on the recommendation, Commission convener Angela Constance MSP said: "Since the newly-appointed members of the Commission began their work in June we have examined Audit Scotland's accounts for year ended March 2007, its funding for the current year and its plans for 2008-09.

"Throughout this work we have sought explanations from the Auditor General and Audit Scotland management on a number of specific matters to help us understand the business cycle and the funding it requires.

"In its report, the Commission has approved Audit Scotland's budget plans. It has also made a number of recommendations to seek further clarification on Audit Scotland's approach to planned efficiency savings; the way in which Audit Scotland's business cycle influences its funding requirements and its perceived reliance on end-year flexibility. This will help us ensure that Audit Scotland demonstrates the highest levels of transparency and efficiency in its own budgeting."
