“The audit work must pay attention to the motto ‘Safety – Reputation’, and to achieve safety and reputation, we must ensure quality. We need to focus on evaluating the effectiveness of the management and use of public finance and public assets of ministries, sectors, and localities through budget settlement audits, budget settlement report audits, and specialized audits; focus on identifying where there are losses and waste, where there is public concern, and where voters feel there is waste. Auditing must focus on these areas to audit and confirm,” emphasized Mr. Ngo Van Tuan, Auditor General of the State Audit.
At the same time, the State Audit has provided 308 audit reports and related documents to the agencies of the National Assembly, the Central Inspection Committee, the investigation agencies, and other competent state agencies to serve the investigation, inspection, and supervision work.
