Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Tortoise Pipeline & Energy Fund, Inc.
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Tortoise Pipeline & Energy Fund, Inc. (the Fund) as of and for the
year ended November 30, 2020, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), we considered the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting, including controls over safeguarding
securities, as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-CEN, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling
this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. A fund’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. A fund’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the fund; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the fund are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors
of the fund; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a fund’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of
any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or
employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such
that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Fund’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and
would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the PCAOB. However, we noted no deficiencies in the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting and its
operation, including controls over safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material weakness as defined above as of November 30, 2020.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the Board of Directors of Tortoise Pipeline & Energy Fund,
Inc. and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
