IEC receives fourth consecutive clean audit
The Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) has received a clean audit opinion for the fourth consecutive time for the 2023/2024 financial statements.
The audit by the Auditor General also includes the books on Party Funding.
Electoral Commission Chief Electoral Officer (CEO), Sy Mamabolo, said this was due to committed work by the IEC staff.
This after the IEC was accused of rigging the 20204 elections by the uMkhonto weSizwe Party (MK Party).
"Throughout the years we have implemented internal controls to manage performance of the organisation. We strive to maintain this standard going forward, even during busy election periods.”
"As the Electoral Commission, we have not only committed ourselves to delivering reputable elections but have also made it our business to ensure our business practices are of the highest standard through the consistent implementation of internal controls."
The audit report and the Annual Report will be presented to the seventh iteration of the National Assembly in line with the provisions of the Electoral Commission Act and the PFMA.
