23	The significance of Auditor-General in the control of public funds in local government with specific reference to Mopani District Municipality Maake, Mapula Reginah 09 1900 (has links) MPM / Oliver Tambo Institute of Governance and Policy Studies / The aim of the study investigates the significance of Auditor General in the control of public funds in local government with specific reference to Mopani District Municipality in order to make recommendations that can assist in improving the control of public funds. The research identifies and assesses weaknesses in how Mopani District Municipality has been controlling its public funds by analyzing the Auditor General reports for the past three financial years and its implications to service delivery. The research further assesses the role played by Auditor General in influencing the internal financial control of the municipality and in auditing the performance of the municipality since in other municipalities money is paid to contractors for services not rendered. The study provides academic input into public administration, specifically in the area of improving service delivery performance, control and financial performance management in municipalities. The study could contribute to the establishment of effective ways of monitoring the control of public funds by municipalities. / NRF Basic municipal services Governance Councillor Executive Mayor Participant -observation Ward Committees Participant Public participation Performance Municipal Council or Council Monitoring Informal settlement Integrated Development Plan (IDP) 657.4520968259 Investments -- South Africa -- Limpopo Local finance -- Accounting Municipal finance -- Accounting Auditing -- South Africa -- Limpopo
