Auditor general accused of shoddy work

The Internal Audit Service accused the auditor-general of serious negligence and conduct unbecoming in connection to a report he released, stating that he violated auditing principles and standards by not meeting with auditees before publishing findings. The agency also claimed that the Commissioner of Internal Audit took immediate action in response to allegations of conflict of interest and communicated this to the auditor-general, who still went ahead and published his report without considering this information.
