At a national level this usually involves the executive government accounting for its stewardship of taxpayers' money to the elected representatives in Parliament. The state audit office makes an important contribution to this process by providing independent information, assurance and advice to Parliament about the accounts presented by the Executive. All state audit offices have essentially the same basic purpose - described by one writer as 'making public accountability a reality' - but the way that each fulfils this purpose is influenced by its historical background and its place in the constitutional and governmental structure. In 1996 the United Kingdom National Audit Office published a book which examined the role of each state audit office - often referred to as a Supreme Audit Institution (SAI) - in the European Union and the European Court of Auditors. The book examined the accountability relationships that then existed between the parliament, government and a variety of public sector bodies in each country, the way that state audit offices had responded to changes in the machinery of government, and the reasons for other developments in their roles. -

Rule of Law Report Legal Certainty, Judicial Review, Appointment of Justices, Corruption Prevention m o c . e b o d a . k c Sustainable Governance o t s - e g Indicators 2020 e v © Sustainable Governance SGI Indicators SGI 2020 | 2 Rule of Law Indicator Legal Certainty Question To what extent do government and administration act on the basis of and in accordance with legal provisions to provide legal certainty? 41 OECD and EU countries are sorted according to their performance on a scale from 10 (best) to 1 (lowest). This scale is tied to four qualitative evaluation levels. 10-9 = Government and administration act predictably, on the basis of and in accordance with legal provisions. Legal regulations are consistent and transparent, ensuring legal certainty. 8-6 = Government and administration rarely make unpredictable decisions. Legal regulations are consistent, but leave a large scope of discretion to the government or administration. 5-3 = Government and administration sometimes make unpredictable decisions that go beyond given legal bases or do not conform to existing legal regulations. Some legal regulations are inconsistent and contradictory. 2-1 = Government and administration often make unpredictable decisions that lack a legal basis or ignore existing legal regulations. Legal regulations are inconsistent, full of loopholes and contradict each other. Estonia Score 10 The rule of law is fundamental to Estonian government and administration. In the period of transition from communism to liberal democracy, most legal acts and regulations had to be amended or introduced for the first time. Joining the European Union in 2004 caused another major wave of legal reforms. -
