Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Peter Bone (Conservative). It was answered on Thursday, 23 October 2008 on behalf of the Public Accounts Commission.
NAO Overseas Investments
- Question
- I am grateful for that answer. However, does the right hon. Gentleman not think it strange that the commission responsible for overseeing local government, the Audit Commission, had £10 million invested in Icelandic banks?
- Answer
-
That is—thankfully—outside my remit, but I point out that, as the Audit Commission is audited externally by the NAO, it is a matter for the Public Accounts Committee.
