Question:

Written answers

The Chief State Solicitor’s Office have confirmed that they are not acting for the State or any state agencies in any proceedings in respect of which Pricewaterhouse Coopers are a defendant or a respondent. It should be noted, however, that the Chief State Solicitor’s Office does not represent all state agencies and it is therefore possible that some state agencies could potentially have brought such an action through a private solicitor, but I am not aware of any such proceedings.
