TS spent as dull an afternoon as is humanly possible last week at a meeting of the august members of the ICAEW council.
Many worthy measures were discussed (members still not getting the institute’s newsletter for example) and thoroughly debated. Until one council member dared to ask institute chief exec Michael Izza ‘what’s going on with the CCAB?’ The future of the committee of accounting bodies is of course up in the air, and TS was hoping for another juicy spat to relate to you. Ever the professional, however, Izza inquired as to whether ‘the press are in,’ and TS was summarily turfed out. If anyone wants to tell us what was said, the address is as follows takingstock@accountancyage.com.
