SCOPA congratulates Legislature on Clean Audit

The Standing Committee on Public Accounts in the Northern Cape Provincial Legislature has relayed its compliments to the Legislature for attaining a clean audit in the 2022/2023 financial year. This comes after much commitment to upholding good governance by the Legislature Speaker, Honourable Newrene Klaaste.

According to the SCOPA chairperson, Honourable Fawzia Rhoda, the Legislature has set a great example as an oversight body over all government departments, entities and municipalities. Furthermore, the Legislature must improve on measures to tighten controls in order to curb any irregular expenditure and implement steps to maintain a clean audit.

The Speaker, Honourable Newrene Klaaste, welcomed the positive feedback from the committee and has committed to maintain this clean audit. She further acknowledged that the clean audit demonstrates commitment to good governance by the outgoing 6th Legislature.

The Legislature made a bold decision last year (2022) to nominate a member of the official opposition, the current SCOPA chairperson, Hon Fawzia Rhoda to lead this committee.

This was under the vision of a truly accountable and transparent institution that demonstrates stringent oversight over the 6th Administration, which has registered an improved audit outcome of five clean audit outcomes for the year under review.
