Consolidated general report on the local audit outcomes, 2017-18

The Consolidated general report on the local audit outcomes for 2017-18 shows "an overall decline in audit results for the 2017-18 financial year. This undesirable state of deteriorating audit outcomes shows that various local government role players have been slow in implementing, and in many instances even disregarded, the audit office’s recommendations.  As a result, the accountability for financial and performance management continues to worsen in most municipalities."
