REPORT NO.: ADDENDUM TO REPORT CLD-020-07
PAGE 2
At the Council meeting of May 14, 2007, Council dealt with Report CLD-020-07 which advised
that Hobb and Company were unable to complete the compliance audit of Mayor Abernethy's
election financial returns. The request for the compliance audit was granted by Council at their
meeting held on April 30. In consideration of Report CLD-020-07, Council reconsidered their
earlier decision and appointed the firm of Deloitte and Touche to conduct the audit.
I have been advised by Bernie Chandler, Senior Manager, Audit and Insurance Services,
Deloitte and Touche, that their firm is also unable to conduct the audit as the Municipality of
Clarington is a client of the firm. Accordingly, it is recommended that Resolution #C-276-07
passed on May 14, 2007, which appointed Deloitte and Touche as the auditor, be reconsidered
and another auditor be appointed to conduct the compliance audit.
A copy of Report CLD-020-07 is attached as Attachment #1 for information.
