4. In the preceding year By 25.Geo.3.c. 52. the Commissionstill still waiting
were appointedestablished for the auditing of the Public Accounts.
No such authority as that of reporting opinions was
included in this commission: the reason evidently is,
that power was therein given to the Commissioners
themselves; adequate to everythe doing thing which the end in
view required to be done.

These Commissioners are the only set of the four
who are precluded from sitting in the House of Commons.

For the Clause corresponding to this part of the preamble, see SS[ ] for this purpose further on

Objection to this clause. There is Too great a power
to be given to a permanent body of men like
this: it makes them a fourth Estate.

Answer - no power at all - no faculty What is thus
required to be done by them is no more than may be done by
any body, and is done by every body that pleases.
No power, but a duty without power. The Commissioners
are not to bring in Bills.. Opinions are It is made
their more especial duty to give opinions and suggest
measures, onlybecause their situation is such as
to give the a better view, these can be possessed by
any body of the matters of fact proper to serve
as grounds for such meassures. — What is every
body's business being nobody's business, [+] there is a [+] in this department as in any other,
great advantage in having a particular set of men,
responsible for, in point of character at least, for
whatever remains amiss in this and any other department,
and thereby having a special and constant
inducement to exert their endeavours in divising
means for ratifying defects, and carrying improvement to its highest .
