Proceeding contribution from Nicholas Winterton (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on Financial Management.
Financial Management
I have a simple question. Why is it taking so long to have accounts cleared because they would have to be cleared, certified and audited by professional accountants in this country if they were for a private company? Does the hon. Gentleman not accept that hundreds of millions of euros are still going walkabout every year? Is this an acceptable state of affairs?
