SUBJECT: Independent audit of Green Party financial records

 

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE (100 words or less; include relationship, reasons
and/or justification to the State Central Committee):

The CT Green Party has had a number of Treasurers during its history but has
not standardized its bookkeeping system.  There is a need for a single
paper- or computer-based ledger system and better documentation of
expenditures.  An independent audit is needed to review our records from the
past several years and to recommend bookkeeping procedures going forward
that will serve the Green Party well in the future.

 

PROPOSAL:

The CT Green Party shall appoint an ad hoc committee to obtain quotes from
three professional accountants for an independent audit of the party's
books.  The committee shall then make a recommendation to the SCC regarding
the hiring of an auditor.  In order to avoid any perception of bias, it is
our recommendation that the current and former party Treasurers not serve on
the committee selecting an auditor.
