ABC spokesperson on Finance, Economic Affairs and Tourism, Nomi Nkondlo, said that her party had long maintained that clean audits do not equal good governance.
This is according to the African National Congress following the recent announcement by the Auditor General., party spokesperson on Finance, Economic Affairs and Tourism, Nomi Nkondlo, said that her party had long maintained that clean audits do not equal good governance.
Nkondlo said that clean audits were not an indication that sewerage was attended to on time, nor that refuse was being collected on time. “These do not ensure that streetlights are working, that people have access to clean water, or that the environment is protected. In fact, clean audits perpetuate inequality in service delivery because you simply repeat what you did last year,” said Nkondlo.“As we see in so many badly-run municipalities around South Africa. Our work is about so much more than just clean audits, we must achieve actual outcomes for residents, and cut red tape where necessary to get it done.
