I believe that they have audit visits but to dig down on that scale would be impossible and cost mmore than any savings from finding a corrupt homelessness official. I believe all political colour councils are hugely honourable with spending and that the people working in there are largely there to do good for their towns. But the accounts they publish are pretty detailed and it wouldn't take a committed local auditor long to detect financial corruption on anything other than a minor 1 or 2 rogue individuals level.
