| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "The National Audit Office has played an important role in the checks and balances of the UK Parliamentary and political system over the last 40 years. This new book, more than just a history of the UK's supreme audit institution, examines the very definition of accountability through both an historic and academic lens, critically exploring questions about the role of audit in a democracy and how well it is working. Holding Government to Account draws on several unique sources of evidence, including interviews with senior officials from the National Audit Office and the civil service, as well as senior Parliamentarians with experience of the NAO's relationships with government and legislature. These interviews are supplemented by an analysis of previously unpublished manuscript material in the National Archives, examination of NAO reports and of Parliamentary and other reports focused on accountability. The book begins with a history of the National Audit Office in the context of the UK's wider history. It then offers an overview of the constitutional, political and human legacies of the Exchequer and Audit Department, followed by a close examination of the National Audit Office's leadership and decision-making from inception in 1984 through to the present. The authors conclude with an exploration of how the meaning of public sector audit has evolved over time, in accordance with its wider political, ideological, and material context. In doing so, they demonstrate that any question about the National Audit Office's future and organization is really a question about what democracy and good government mean in a modern bureaucratic state. Holding Government to Account will be of keen interest to students enrolled in courses on accounting, public administration, law and politics, as well as to politicians, civil servants and Supreme Audit Institutions internationally"-- |
