He was Commonwealth Auditor-General between June 1961 and May 1973.[1] Life and careerIn 1925, Skermer joined the Commonwealth Public Service as a mechanic-in-training at the Postmaster-General's Department.[2] Prime Minister Robert Menzies announced Skermer's appointment as Auditor-General on 2 June 1961.[3] The appointment was a promotion for Skermer from his position as Deputy Auditor-General.[4] Between 1961 and 1971, the accounts and records of three new departments and 44 new statutory bodies came within the remit of Skermer's audits—a huge growth in the Auditor-General's auditing function.[5] Skermer retired in 1973, after 48 years of public service.[6] In November 1992, after several months of illness, Skermer died aged 84.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite news|url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article126954805|title=Obituary: Vic Skermer, CBE: Achiever in many spheres|date=11 November 1992|newspaper=The Canberra Times|location=ACT|page=4}} {{s-start}}{{s-gov}}{{s-bef|before=Harold Clive Newman}}{{s-ttl|title=Commonwealth Auditor-General |years=1961 – 1973}}{{s-aft|after=Duncan Robert Steele Craik}}{{s-end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Skermer, Vic}}{{Politics-stub}}2. ^{{cite news|url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article110708247|title=Mr Skermer retires|date=5 May 1973|newspaper=The Canberra Times|location=ACT|page=9}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article130713888|title=The new Auditor-General, Mr. V.
