Auditor-General budget cuts will see agencies avoid scrutiny for decades: Grant Hehir

Advertisement The watchdog in charge of keeping the government accountable for its use of taxpayer money says his budget has fallen so much, some agencies might only face scrutiny once every 20 years and auditors are tolerating “uncomfortable” risks in financial statements. Auditor-General Grant Hehir says budget pressures have left him with no choice but cut audits, which he says contribute to a better performing public sector.
