Para 4.4.9 — MSO (Audit)
Original Rule Text
4.4.9 A set of pages of the Objection Book should be reserved for each of these distinct categories of objections and for objections in respect of which a separate record may be required for any purpose. Another set of pages should be reserved for keeping note of overlapping objections.
What This Means
The Objection Book should be organized by reserving dedicated sets of pages for each distinct category of objection — for example, separate sections for unsanctioned charges, overpayments, and short recoveries. An additional set of pages must be reserved specifically for noting overlapping objections, where the same issue may fall under more than one category.

Practical Example
An auditor setting up a new Objection Book for a PWD division allocates pages 1-20 for unsanctioned special charges, pages 21-40 for overpayments and short recoveries, pages 41-50 for delayed debt adjustments, and pages 51-60 for overlapping objections. When an objection about an overpayment also involves a missing sanction, it gets noted in the overlapping objections section with cross-references.
