PCAOB

The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, which oversees company auditors, sent lawmakers a draft bill that would repeal a requirement that its enforcement proceedings remain secret. Daniel Goelzer, acting chairman of the PCAOB, said the public does not have access to information about accountants who have been charged or sanctioned by the board.  http://www.journalofaccountancy.com/Web/20103172
