Luanda – The Court of Auditors (TC) announced Thursday its commitment to modernisation of digital system, with focus on improving the effectiveness and efficiency of its work.
The presiding judge of the TC, Exalgina Gambôa, said the technological modernisation, which is now starting, is of great importance.
She stressed the role of technical modernisation in facilitating the pursuit of the tasks assigned to the court.
The judge highlighted the technical services of the TC, which have the responsibility of looking more closely at all elements related to the supervision of the State’s financial resources.
These are financial resources under the responsibility of public managers that, by legal requirement, are under the jurisdiction of the Court, as guardian of the legality of public finances and patrimony, she added.
Addressing a swearing in ceremony of the newly appointed staff of the sector, Exalgina Gambôa called for unity in actions, sharing knowledge, and open up, in order to contribute to the accomplishment of the competences attributed to each organic unit.
In her speech, Gamboa explained that the Court of Auditors participates in working groups that integrate auditors from several countries of the “OISC-CPLP” and “AFROSAI-E”, for coordinated audits at regional and international level.
“This is an unprecedented fact that honours us and will allow our auditors to gain international experience by sharing with high level and experienced counterparts”, she said.
The Court of Auditors´ missions include supervising the legality of the financial and administrative management acts of the State and other public and private institutions determined by law.
