Parliament has this year received a clean audit from the Auditor General. This comes after receiving unqualified audits since the 2006/2007 financial year
The clean audit means Parliament’s 2014/2015 financial statements are free from material misstatements and there are no material findings on reporting on performance objectives or non-compliance with legislation.
This achievement was recognised with a certificate and a trophy at an award ceremony at the offices of the Auditor General yesterday. The clean audit outcome is the reflection of the leadership provided from the Presiding Officers and other governance structures, the dedication of senior management and staff.
Over the years Parliament ensured adequate implementation of the Financial Management of Parliament and Provincial Legislatures Act of 2009 and continuous improvement of internal and financial control. There have been consistent improvements on Parliament’s audit outcomes over the years.
