Many thanks. I'm inclined to think that the answer to 5 dn is SUPERSEDE, rather than the more common spelling- because of the reference to 'auditor' and 'give up' in the clue.

Neveracrossword

Neily, my first spelling 'supercede' does not actually exist as a word - so it has to be 'supersede' (where the 'sede' sounds like 'cede', give up)
