President Jacob Zuma’s office has not been very good recently at complying with all the laws and regulations imposed upon it, according to Auditor General Terence Nombembe. And the problem of non-compliance is prevalent across national government departments.
Nombembe has not stated his specific concerns about the presidency audit, but has suggested that all but three of the 39 government departments also received questionable compliance ratings. The only departments to which these concerns do not currently apply are environmental affairs, public enterprises and science.
The presidency and the majority of departments received a financially unqualified audit with findings, because they had not “fully addressed deficiencies in their reporting on predetermined objectives and/or compliance with laws and regulations”.
According to Nombembe, the biggest area of concern is supply chain and procurement. Does he mean corruption?
Nevertheless, Nombembe says there’s been an overall improvement in government departments striving for clean audits, and that this has been driven by leadership.
