The allegations were confirmed, and the details provided to management. During the investigation, control weaknesses related to the assignment of take-home vehicles and oversight of transponder use, as well as areas where oversight controls could be strengthened to better enforce compliance with policies and procedures, were identified and are reported herewith.
