    The National Audit Act promised during the last Presidential and General elections, is to be presented in Parliament shortly for adoption. The adoption of the Act will further strengthen the capacity of Parliament to safeguard public funds and ensure their proper utilisation.

    It will also strengthen the hands of the Auditor General in relation to the above.


    The Independent Commission is to be headed by the Auditor General. Similar to the setting up of other commissions, the members to the new one will be nominated by the President on the recommendations of the Constitutional Council.


    The Commission will be entrusted with making appointments, promotions, transfers and initiating disciplinary action within the sector.


    A National Audit Office will also be set up to help the Auditor General to carry out the functions.
