Gauteng Govt Cracks Down on Corruption: Senior Officials to Face Lifestyle Audits
In a bid to combat corruption, the Gauteng provincial government has announced that senior officials handling finances, particularly those in the supply chain management sector, will undergo rigorous lifestyle audits. This move aims to promote transparency and accountability, especially in the tender process. By scrutinizing the financial dealings of these officials, the government hopes to root out fraudulent activities and ensure that public funds are utilized efficiently. The audits will be conducted by the Special Investigating Unit (SIU) and will focus on officials who handle tenders and other financial transactions, as part of a broader effort to prevent corruption and promote good governance in the public sector, including procurement and financial management.
