Is the minister able to explain the current auditing procedures for the 600-odd summonses that have been issued and in particular how the ACC ensure that the warrants are tracked in the process? It struck me that, with the way the summonses are issued, you could track the summons itself. I would like to know whether the ACC track when the written reasons are reduced, published and dated and whether that is prior to an examination taking place. Or can the minister rule out that at no point an examination takes place before the reasons are reduced to writing?
