    TransBus financial controller faces AIDB complaints

    TransBus financial controller faces AIDB complaints

    Ian Shelton joins PwC, Andersen and former FD on list to face disciplinary tribunal

    Author Date published December 19, 2005 Categories

    The former financial controller of Mayflower subsidiary TransBus is to face
    complaints from the Accountancy Investigation and Discipline Board.

    Ian Shelton will face a disciplinary tribunal next year following an
    investigation by AIDB executive counsel Cameron Scott. The complaint relates to
    irregularities in the operation of an invoice discounting facility at TransBus.

    Earlier this year, the AIDB laid complaints against former Mayflower auditors
    PricewaterhouseCoopers and Andersen as well as ex finance director David Thomas
    Donnelly in relation to the collapse of the former bus manufacturer.
