Municipal Affairs Minister Ravi Kahlon dismisses calls for the province to restore an auditor general for local government.
He argued that there is already sufficient oversight to catch financial abuse at municipal and regional governments.
The New Democrats abolished the office after they took over from the Liberals .
Surrey Councillor Linda Annis repeated her earlier call for Surrey to establish its own auditor general.
Ironically, Horgan ’s successor, David Eby , with his housing legislation, has grabbed far more power from local government than Christy Clark ever did. He proposes to do the same with Bill 15 , the Infrastructure Projects Act now before the house. In retrospect, bringing back a provincially funded auditor general for local government would be a minor and perhaps welcome encroachment on local autonomy..
