Conservative Senate Leadership: Benjamin Perrin

Benjamin Perrin: Meanwhile, independent auditors tasked with probing Duffys expense claims have been recalled to answer to allegations of interference by the Conservative Senate leadership, according to CTV. In a statement to News, B.C.s Law Society said it is aware of the information that has been reported in the news media. Anytime we learn of information that might be relevant to a lawyers behaviour, we will consider it and The Law Society of British Columbia is considering an investigation of Benjamin Perrin, former special counsel to the prime minister, for his alleged role in the deal to repay Mike Duffys expenses, News has learned. A sworn RCMP affidavit includes correspondence between staffers in the Prime Ministers Office and Conservative senators about the Deloitte audit. An email trail suggests Perrin and Conservative Party lawyer Arthur Hamilton were involved in the deal that would see Duffys expenses eventually covered by Harpers then-chief of staff Nigel Wright.
