Historical background
CHAMBRE DES COMPTES DE BRETAGNE / ACCOUNTS CHAMBER OF BRITTANY
The Chamber of Accounts of Brittany is installed in Nantes where it forms a survival in a fief joined to the royal domain. Like the other chambers of accounts in the kingdom, it works with accountants who send their accounts to the public prosecutor. The latter presented them to the Grand Bureau of the Chamber of Accounts where auditors and correctors sat. Finally, the masters judged the final accounts. In reality, the provincial chambers of accounts were of no use for public accounting and their role was to clear the accounts sent by the King's Council without further examination..
