Act 2006, Section 508 Guidance for Regulatory and Prosecuting Authorities in England, Wales
and Northern Ireland Offences in Connection With Auditors' Reports (Section 507)
The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills has released new guidance intended to assist prosecutors in applying relevant prosecutorial code.
The purpose of the power in section 508 to issue guidance is to assist regulatory and prosecuting authorities in cases where it appears that an offence under section 507 may have taken place and where the same behaviour could come within the scope of the investigation powers (under paragraph 15 or 24 of Schedule 10 to the Act) of the authorities that supervise or regulate auditors.
This guidance note (PDF) is available on the BERR website.
