The results emanate from the AG’s annual audit findings, which were recently presented to the City's executive.
City of Tshwane Mayor Nasiphi Moya blames the previous DA-led administration for a 2023/2024 financial year’s qualified audit report. Picture: Kamogelo Moichela/IOLTshwane Mayor Nasiphi Moya has criticised the previous DA-led administration under Mayor Cilliers Brink for failing to address the metro's financial woes, which were highlighted in a qualified audit report from the Auditor-General for the 2023/24 financial year.
In addition, the City's irregular expenditure ballooned to R2.3 billion in the 2023/24 financial year, a marked increase from the R1.9 billion recorded in the previous year. Mayor spokesperson Zintle Mahlati said the AG's report recorded only marginal progress on a few indicators, while seeing overall stagnation on the audit outcome.
“The new political executive has tasked the administration, led by the City Manager, to develop a full set of remedial actions to address the chronic issues identified by the AG. We will be receiving this presentation in the coming week, following which we will take residents into our confidence about plans to materially improve audit outcomes,” she said.
