Municipal Infrastructure Grants Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether grant management and asset management are working as claimed, and how to evidence the conclusion. Assurance work is under scrutiny because service delivery failures usually trace back to planning rather than to budget. Delegates leave able to work confidently with irregular expenditure, annual reporting and public finance management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain irregular expenditure to someone who does not do the work, measured against the Municipal Systems Act
- Review annual reporting and say plainly whether it is working
- Spot where public finance management is failing before it becomes a finding
- Make a decision about municipal budgeting without waiting for a specialist
