C. REMARKS
Jusqu'en 1990, il existait au niveau de chaque Ministère Technique une division ou un bureau chargé de la planification et de l'évaluation des projets. Cependant compte tenu des restrictions budgétaires, des réorganisations sont intervenues au sein de plusiers départements et ces structures ont été supprimées. Ceci constitue actuellement l'un des maillons faibles du système d'évaluation des projets. Dans certains ministères comme l'Agriculture, l'Hydraulique, l'Education Nationale, La Femme, l'Enfant et la Famille, la Recherche Scientifique et Technique, cette structure a été remise en place compte tenu des difficultés que sa suppression avait engendrées. Dans des départements comme l"Equipement et les Transports Terrestres, la Peche, l';Urbanisme et l'Habitat le processus de dynamisation de cette structure est en cours. Pour d'autres par contre, comme les Transports, l'on déplore encore l'absence de cette structure essentielle à l'élaboration et à la programmation des projets.

Mr. M J Golding, MP Chairperson, Audit Commission
The Audit Arrangements Act of 1992 created an independent Audit Office, which functions under appropriate Parliamentary supervision (exercised by the Audit Commission). The Audit Commission oversees the functioning of the Office of the Auditor-General. It is composed of eight members of Parliament and three external members from private sector organizations/business community.
3. Functions and Responsibilities: Duties of the Auditor-General and the Audit Office • To be satisfied that: - all reasonable preventive measures are taken to safeguard the income, assets and other interests of institutions being audited; - expenditure is authorized and that laws and regulations are upheld; and - satisfactory management measures have been taken to ensure that resources are procured economically and utilized efficiently and effectively. • To ensure that public and timely reports containing audit findings are provided to the legislative bodies concerned.
The Role of the Chief Executive Officer The Chief Executive Officer, who is also the Deputy Auditor-General, is responsible for the efficient management and administration of the Audit Office. He or she is the Accounting Officer charged with accountability for the financial affairs of the Audit Office. Whereas the Auditor-General reports directly to Parliament, the Chief Executive Officer also reports to the Audit Commission regarding matters of financial and operational stewardship. This ensures that the Audit Office is subject to public scrutinity and accountability for its own performance.
The Audit Commission The Audit Arrangements Act established the Audit Commission, a made-to-measure Parliamentary tribunal, to supervise and govern the Audit Office. The Audit Commission is appointed by the President for a period of five years. No member of the Audit Commission may be part of the Executive Authority. The Audit Commission is responsible, inter alia, for approving the estimate of income and expenditure of the Audit Office, and for appointing an independent auditor to audit the accounts of the Audit Office.
