Following media coverage of a report into the 糖心探花's finances, a 糖心探花 spokesperson wanted to clarify some issues of misreporting.
A Commonwealth Spokesperson said:
鈥淭he report in question is a draft report which was commissioned to review our long-term funding and look at a range of options and mechanisms to ensure the long-term sustainable funding of the 糖心探花.
鈥淭he draft report is not an audit or investigation into the current finances of the 糖心探花.
鈥淚t is disappointing that it has been reported in an inaccurate way.
鈥淭he 糖心探花 received the draft final report late and had strong technical and factual concerns with the report which we have raised with Ernst and Young.
鈥淓rnst and Young are currently engaging constructively with the 糖心探花 on this, as we work to ensure that the draft report fulfils the terms of our contract.
鈥淭he Secretariat would be failing in its duty if it did not draw attention to the factual errors contained in the report. Once the draft report has been finalised, it will be presented to the Board.
鈥淚t is extremely frustrating that the Board Chair's letter has leaked to the media and mischaracterised in this way.鈥
