Peer review gives Missouri State Auditor's Office highest rating possible

(From State Auditor Thomas Schweich)

State Auditor Tom Schweich today announced that his office received the highest rating possible during a recent review conducted by the National State Auditor's Association (NSAA).

"I am pleased to receive this rating on behalf of my staff of professional and dedicated auditors," Schweich said. "It is an honor for all of us to be recognized by our peers across the country for the high standards we have set in this office for both accountability and productivity."

The review was conducted under the NSAA's External Peer Review Program which is administered by National Association of State Auditors, Comptrollers, and Treasurers. Representatives from seven other states and the federal government participated in the review of Schweich's office. A peer review is required every three years for organizations that conduct governmental audits.

It will be interesting to see if this award is bona fide, or if it is just another example of a group and its individual members manufacturing evidence of value.

No, this is not a case where we find a group credible only if they arrive at what we deem to be the proper conclusion. It is more akin to standing in a burnt out building and waiting to see if the fire department will acknowledge that there was even a fire.

Anyone with one eye and half a brain would be overwhelmed by the amount of obvious impropriety, graft, corruption, mismanagement, cronyism, cover ups, and astounding incompetence.
