The Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Hon Ibrahim Tawa Conteh on Tuesday 17th December 2024, laid the Audit Service Report in the Chambers of Parliament.
The report revealed a database reveals unsupported amendments being made to payrolls.
These amendments include additions, deletions, and salary adjustments amounting to NLe3,931,942.12, NLe3,620,944.92, and NLe425,538.75 respectively.
The report further indicates that such an act violates Regulations 111 & 112 of the PFMR, 2018, that is procurement & financial management regulations.
The audit service therefore recommended that the Director of Recruitment and Selection should provide evidence for all additions and deletions to and from the payrolls, and the Director of Payroll Administration should provide evidence for salary adjustments.
On the payment of Salary Arrears without Approvals and Documentations, a review of the Arrears Report revealed that government employees “were paid arrears” without approvals and documentations.
The Auditors then observed that the arrears paid amounted to NLe1,006,129.37, indicating a weakness in the internal control system.
The auditors recommended that the Director of Payroll Administration should recover unjustifiable payments and enhance internal control mechanisms for proper verification and authorisation of arrears claims and other payroll transactions.
