The District has 不 had a written procedure that clearly specifies what types of expenditures can be considered as actual and necessary expense as opposed to a gift of public funds. Although there can不 be one document that will definitively address every possible spending situation, there needed to be a procedure and/or set of guidelines that sets the framework in which all situations can be analyzed. Guidelines appear to be more useful than attempting to develop a complex, yet still 不 definitive, procedure.
