of the Punjab Local Government Ordinance 2001, require the Auditor General of Pakistan to audit the accounts of the Provincial Governments and the accounts of any authority or body established by, or under the control of the Provincial Government. Accordingly, the audit of all receipts and expenditure of the Local Fund and Public Accounts of Town / Tehsil Municipal Administrations of the City District is the responsibility of the Auditor General of Pakistan. The report is based on audit of the accounts of various offices of the Town / Tehsil Municipal Administrations of the City District Government, Rawalpindi for the Financial Years 2014-15. The Directorate General of Audit District Governments Punjab (North), Lahore conducted audit during 2015-16 on test check basis with a view to reporting significant findings to the relevant stakeholders. The main body of the Audit Report includes only the systemic issues and audit findings carrying value of Rs 1.00 million or more. Relatively less significant issues are listed in the Annex-A of the Audit Report. The Audit observations listed in the Annex-A shall be pursued with the Principal Accounting Officer at the DAC level and in all cases where the PAO does not initiate appropriate action, the audit observation will be brought to the notice of the Public Accounts Committee through the next year’s Audit Report. The audit results indicate the need for adherence to the regularity frame work besides instituting and strengthening internal controls to prevent recurrence of such violations and irregularities. The observations included in this Report have been finalized
