BBC NEWS Wales 'Unhealthy tensions' at watchdog: "'This includes so-called 'cherry picking' of staff for projects and allocation of staff without the opportunity to express an interest in the work which contributes to perceptions of nepotism and a lack of transparency.'
'Positive feedback'
The report said a smaller, more coherent executive committee at the audit office could help address some of the issues, but only if its members work together at a senior level within the organisation.
Despite the criticisms, the review found that the body received consistently positive feedback from the organisations it was called in to investigate."

Our opinion:
Too many organisations providing 'positive feedback' does not inspire confidence in the work of the Wales Audit Office (WAO), is this a direct result of the 'cherry picking' of staff for projects? Having the same auditors going into the same local authorities year after year is unhealthy.
