Causeway Coast and Glens Council has appointed an independent adviser following an extraordinary audit of controversial land deals
Ms Murray told councillors that she had been a member of the Accounts Commission for Scotland which focuses on the audit of local government.
"The focus is not only on financial audit but also best value; it looks at the duty of best value for councils and how they go about providing services to local areas," she said. She said her role at Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council was "to provide support and challenge for the implementation team; to provide support and advice to elected members and to provide reassurance to the Department for Communities on the approach and process council has gone through to progress the recommendations from the extraordinary audit".
