Whatever happened to the Audit Commission?
Those who are dusting down their copies of the last report of The Culture Select Committee into the public library service in anticipation of further inquiries this Autumn, will recollect how The DCMS, MLA, CILIP, SCL ACL etc etc pinned so much faith in the ability of the Audit Commission to solve all the problems of the service.
It didn't happen, did it, and now with the very public revelations of librarians fiddling their performance figures one wonders how the Audit Commission will answer the questions about what they have been doing all this time.
