Location - Hotel Vere Palace

Duration - 3 hours.
Topics elaborated are: structures of audit of state institutions in foreign countries and in Georgia ; Composition of Chambers of control in Georgia, Power of Chambers of control in foreign countries and in Georgia; Ways of audit of state institutions; Treatment of confidential information.
Most relevant questions/answers:
1) In which way acts audit system of governmental institutions internationally? What is difference with Georgian system? In different countries auditing organ is independent from state control. Political power could not enforce auditing organ do something as political power wishes. For example in Germany speaker of parliament can ask auditing body to do something but president of auditing organ is free in his or her decision and may say no. In mane cases this is real fact.
2) In Georgia there are some field, which are closed for inspection and consideration, what is the case in other countries for example in Germany ? In Germany everything is open for audit. No one field is closed for inspection and audit. There were cases in earlier times then some officials from defense system would like to close some fields for inspection but constitution court ruled that right of inspection was guaranteed by constitution. The same case is in Georgia too. In Georgian constitution is written that Chamber of control could inspect every field, but there are decision of parliament of Georgia to close some purchases of Ministry of Defense of Georgia.
3) What kind of systems exists internationally for monitoring of implementation of decisions of Supreme Audit Institutions?
Initially chamber of control makes recommendations for governmental institutions to correct their mistakes. After the certain period second round of audit is conducted. If there were no improvements, the chamber of control will submit information to the national legislative body. Main function of chamber of control and audit of state institutions is to raise efficiency. In Georgian reality this system acts in different manner.
4) How we can evaluate behavior of government institutions after the rose revolution?
There are some improvements, but to do more will be needed.
