Government chief employs wife at £550 a day

Reading the NAO's published accounts of the HMRC Prosecution Office I see that it has been castagated for losing all control of the money it doles out to its lawyers there were no contracts, "poor audit trails" and no any idea of its liabilities. How many lawyers in the Government does it take to negociate a contract?

Well one can expect a Government of lawyers to waste money on lawyers what I was more amused to read was that the Chief Operating Officer has employed his wife as an employment consultant at £550 a day. Well at least it was his wife.
