MPAC Oversight Report 2021/2022
In terms of MFMA circular 11, 32 and 63, the Municipal Public Account Committee (MPAC) is required to consider the Annual Report of the Municipality. We have identified areas of concern, including irregular expenditure, fruitless and wasteful expenditure, non-compliance with procurement regulations, and inadequate financial controls. These issues pose a risk to the financial sustainability of the municipality and must be addressed urgently. In this regard, the committee made specific recommendations to address the identified challenges and improve financial management practices within the municipality. These recommendations in concise strive to strengthening internal controls, enhancing oversight mechanisms, conducting regular audits, and implementing corrective actions to prevent recurrence of financial irregularities.
