Scopa concerned about national audits
Cape Town - Parliament's public accounts watchdog committee Scopa has voiced concern that the 2011/12 national audit outcomes indicate slow progress by departments towards achieving clean audits by 2014.
"Most departments are in the unqualified [category] with other matters' audit space, thus slowing the progress towards clean audits," Standing Committee on Public Accounts (Scopa) chairperson Themba Godi said on Tuesday
"We have also noticed with concern, the lack of movement in the audit outcomes of the department of public works, despite numerous engagements and attempts by various stakeholders to provide lasting solutions to the department's challenges," he said.

The committee was also concerned that the home affairs department had received a qualified audit opinion, a regression from the previous year's outcomes.

"We are calling for decisive leadership intervention in resolving some of the challenges faced by these departments and others that have acquired undesirable audit outcomes," Godi said.
As part of Scopa's oversight focus, the committee would speak to these departments to seek clarity on the reasons for the regression.
Our major determination in this regard is to ensure that the country efficiently utilises its financial resources in a manner that will ensure the realisation of its developmental objectives."

Is the fracking project still on? Because if it is, then there is no point to all these projects if you are going to waste and pollute the most precious resource of all - our water.
