Clean audit for Ekurhuleni
Ekurhuleni mayor Clr Mondli Gungubele has announced that the City of Ekurhuleni has received its second clean audit in as many years, for the 2014/15 financial year.
This is the second year the municipality has received a clean audit.
“This is really good news for the people of Ekurhuleni,” said Gungubele.
“This accolade from the Auditor General is an indication that we are serving the people of this area well.”
Gungubele said the municipality can prove that the 2013/14 clean audit was real.
“We shall continue working hard to ensure that clean audits become a norm in this institution,” he added.
He said there was political will to achieve this and management worked together with the audit committee, risk committee, oversight committee, oversight structures and Municipal Public Accounts Committee, to ensure the clean audit was a reality.
The East Rand Water Care Company failed to receive a clean audit, but Gungubele said management is working hard to address all the issues raised by the Auditor General.
City manager Khaya Ngema said it was always difficult to raise the bar from the previous year and to guard against regressing.
“The management of Ekurhuleni has once again demonstrated that sound use of public resources is of paramount importance,” he said.
“The clean audit outcome is testament to hard work and late nights of ensuring that we serve the people of this city prudently and efficiently.”
