Creating a better and dignified life for the citizens of South Africa through timely effective, efficient and economical SERVICE DELIVERY How does clean administration improve service delivery

A common reaction to the general reports relates to the questions posed by many, including key role players in government, about the need for accountability and consequences and how these can be enforced. Legislation provides the answer to this question as it clearly defines accountability and the remedies. Details are available on pages 44 to 65 of our booklet: In Brief: The Auditor-General of South Africa Accountability and remedies to address transgressions and poor performance

This AGSA booklet highlights the legislation that enables remedies to be applied where national and provincial departments are guilty of transgressions and poor performance. It addresses the following typical matters reported in the general report reports: Failure to comply with legislated obligations and responsibilities Unauthorised, irregular and fruitless and wasteful expenditure Possible fraud and corruption Poor work performance – officials and suppliers Other non-compliance with legislation Accountability and remedies to address transgressions and poor performance
