Unbelievably, MPs and Senators have refused to allow Auditor General Sheila Fraser to audit how they spend more than $500 million of taxpayer dollars. Incredibly, they suggest such an audit goes beyond her mandate. What have they got to hide? If everything is fine and money has been spent wisely, as they suggest, then they should open the books. The Auditor General (AG) should be allowed to do her audit and MPs and Senators should make their spending public.
