The opening of the report by the Comptroller and Auditor General is gas. “The sole focus of the report is on the performance of the University, and not on that of its staff members or any third party.” Long paragraph then “for the avoidance of doubt” about how it doesn’t criticise any individuals at all.
About sums up accountability in the public service. “The semi-sentient University did things all by itself, which were regrettable.”
