Criminal prosecution of a statutory auditor for defective company accounts requires that the auditor fall within the persons designated by the applicable accounting-compliance provision or be expressly charged with that duty. The notes state that an auditor's failure to flag accounting-standard non-compliance does not itself amount to making a false statement unless there is an allegation of a materially false statement or knowing omission of a material fact. They further distinguish wilful default from negligence or lack of due care: criminal liability for breach of statutory audit duties requires allegations of wilfulness, which adverse audit qualifications may negate. On the stated averments, the prosecution was quashed.
