In order to reinforce the saving culture among the public departments and to ensure the legality and reasonableness of the application of public funds, the Commission of Audit (CA) constantly conducts seminars on audit culture for public departments, through which CA further strengthens the communication with the auditees and creates a relationship of interaction rather than confrontation with them. On 28 March, CA conducted a seminar on audit culture for the staff of the Cultural Industries Fund, during which they got acquainted with the importance of audit works and deepened their awareness of proper application of public funds. During the seminar, CA briefed on measures and rules being applied to computer assisted auditing of accounts and emphasized, from the perspective of audit, the importance of enhancing performance in implementing Government policies.

CA will continue conducting suitable seminars according to the diversity of public departments in order to enhance their awareness on audit culture. Concurrent with the presentation sessions for new admitted civil servants, seminars will also be arranged for specific departments or organizations so that all government employees, regardless of their functions, could become aware how audit oversight plays a positive role in the performance of the Government. CA will also be conducting seminars and workshops for accounting professionals associations, social organizations and institutions, in order to deepen their understanding on public audit.
