All 12 Gauteng provincial
departments and public
entities had received clean audit
status for the 2015/16 financial
year – a first for the province in 13
years, the provincial premier, David
Makhura, said last month (August),
He commented that this 100%
clean audit performance served as
“an indication that the province was
well on track towards achieving
its goal of establishing credible
financial control systems” set by his
administration when it took office
in 2014.
A clean audit is achieved if
financial statements are free from
material misstatements, and if
there are no material findings
on compliance with key laws and
regulations.
One agency that improved its
audit status from a disclaimer last
year to an “unqualified audit status”
this year was G-Fleet, an agency
of the Department of Roads and
Transport, which provides vehicle
leasing and fleet management for
the public sector in SA.
