Roxanne 1,985 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I'll do it for £57 000/ annum Actually no, I'll do it for £37 000. I'd never find enough to spend a grand a week on. No point in being greedy. I reckon I could claw my salary back in approximately half an hour. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Non-Believer 12,843 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) I'll do it for nothing. One trip to DOI offices and Banks Circus. "You, you, you and you - clear your desks". I reckon that's £2M+ saved. Plus the £40M on whatever they were dreaming up next. Edited November 10, 2020 by Non-Believer Extra bit 2 1 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

b4mbi 895 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Spending money to save money... oh for god's sake. The auditor general has no power to effect the decisions made by other departments and hence directly effect savings. Also, they are effectively planning on taking in house the audit function for the IOMG financial statements, which surely must have more credibility if audited externally?? I would suggest it would take much more than the 2/3 people proposed to be employed by TAG to do an effective full audit of IOMG accounts. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
