3. VICE-CHANCELLOR’S REVIEW

General Sir John Kotelawala Defence Academy was initially established by the Parliamentary Act No. 68 of 1981 with the key objective of providing facilities for academic education in certain subjects pertinent to training of pre-trained Cadet Officers and providing instructions in such academic activities.

Following its elevation to University status by General Sir John Kotelawala Defence Academy (Amendment) Act No. 27 of 1988, it was renamed General Sir John Kotelawala Defence University by the Amendment Act No. 50 of 2007.

The Defence University, turning into a University with a global approach, has been able at present to acquire the reputation of the only defence University in the South Asian region that awards degrees in defence studies.

The University has secured membership of the Commonwealth Universities Association of the United Kingdom and the international Universities Union and gives the lifeblood to the role of Pioneer to provide the light of wisdom to the defence service and civilian student community who endeavour to achieve the challenging strategies successfully.

Within its very short history, the Defence University has become a full-fledged international-level University consisting of 10 Faculties including the Faculties of Postgraduate Studies, Defence and Strategic Studies, Medicine, Engineering, Law, Management, Social Sciences and Humanities, Allied Health, Built Environment and Spatial Sciences, Research and Development, and Computing.

Upholding its credo - “FOR THE MOTHERLAND FOREVER”, the General Sir John Kotelawala Defence University offers Undergraduate Degrees and Postgraduate Degrees of high standard to local and foreign scholars of discipline and quality upbringing. 5

The University conducted its 9th International Research Conference on the theme “PROFESSIONAL INTEGRITY FOR A SECURE NATION” on 8th and 9th September at the University premises. Many experts and academics from defence services and civil society participated in it.

The Convocation of the University was held under the auspices of His Excellency Maithripala Sirisena, President of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka, on 2 November 2016. Under various disciplines 708 undergraduate and Postgraduate Degrees were awarded.

The true social effect of multifarious strategic management methodologies and staff motivational activities implemented by the University having taken into timely international trends in a far-sighted manner will undoubtedly be reflected on the performance of the University.

The academic and physical progress achieved by the University during the year under review was a victory gained collectively by the staff through accurate management approaches and leadership. It laid the strong basis for the perpetual existence of the University.

We shall functions as one in order to reach our Vision by focusing more on teaching and learning activities, research and academic activities, and infrastructure development etc. for enhancing cooperation with external parties who show an interest towards the University.

Vice Chancellor General Sir John Kotalawala Defence University

Report of the Auditor General on the Financial Statements of the General Sir John Kotalawala Defence University for the Year Ended 31st December 2016 in terms of Subsection (1) of Section 108 of the Universities Act No. 16 of 1978

My comments and observations, which I deem should be published together with the Annual Report in terms of Section 14 (2) (c), are given in this Report.

1.2 Responsibility of the Management Regarding the Financial Statements

The responsibility of the management is to prepare these Financial Statements in accordance with the Sri Lanka Public Sector Accounting Standards, present them in a fair manner and deciding on the internal controls which necessary to make it possible to prepare Financial Statements free of quantitative falsehoods that may be resulted in by frauds or mistakes.

1.3 Responsibility of the Auditor

My responsibility is to express an opinion based on my audit on these Financial Statements. I have conducted my audit according to the Sri Lanka Accounting Standards which are consistent with the international auditing standards of hallowed auditing institutions. These standards expect that the audit will be planned to get a fair ascertainment as to whether I will abide by the requirements of the ethics and the Financial Statements are free of false statements.

The audit includes implementation of procedures for obtaining of evidence relevant to the values and revelations depicted in the Financial Statements. Selected procedures are based on the judgement of the auditor including the risk assessments on the quantitative false statements that could surface in the Financial Statements due to frauds or errors. Although during the risk assessments, the auditor takes into account the internal controls relevant to preparation and reasonable presentation of the Financial Statements of the University for the purpose of planning audit procedures which are appropriate to the context, it does not intend to express an opinion about the effectiveness of the internal control of the University. The audit includes the evaluation of the appropriateness of the accounting policies and the reasonability of the accounting estimates followed by the management as well as the evaluation of the overall presentation of the Financial Statements. The Auditor General is vested with discretionary powers to decide the scope and extent of the audit in terms of Sub- sections (3) and (4) of Section 13 of the Finance Act No. 38 of 1971. My belief is that the audit evidence I have obtained is adequate to provide a basis for my audit opinion.

227

1.4 Basis for the Qualified Opinion

My opinion is qualified, based on the facts cited in paragraph 2.2 of this Report.

********

(e) Although a biogas unit worth Rs. 1,163,536 constructed in 2011 and put to use had been depicted under Tangible Assets in Financial Statements, depreciation had not been allocated for it since 2011.

(b) Although other assets amounting to Rs. 1,491,625 contained in the Fixed Assets of the University and land development cost of Rs. 48,803,874 were shown in the Financial Statements continuously since 2008, the assets represented by it were not presented for physical verification. (c) Although a value of Rs. 13,847,542 was brought forward since 2011 as other assets and buildings under Work in Progress in Financial Statements, the assets represented by it were not presented for physical verification.

2.4 Non-Compliance with Laws, Rules, Regulations and Management Decisions

The following instances of non-compliance were observed:

(a) Financial Regulation 237 (b) of Although it should be certified that the relevant the Financial Regulation Code goods have been received and have been entered on of the Democratic Socialist the relevant stocks registers before making Republic of Sri Lanka payments, Rs. 122,803,287 had been paid as advances in 670 instances contrary to it.

The additional provision totalling Rs. 67,921,734 received during the 02 previous years had been spent for other purposes of the University without Cabinet Approval.

3. Financial Review

3.1 Financial Outcome

According to the Financial Statements submitted, the financial outcome for the year which ended on 31 December 2016 was a deficit of Rs. 955,434,499 and compared to the previous year’s deficit of Rs. 676,191,883, the financial outcome of the year under review was a decline of Rs. 279,242,616. The increase of exchange disadvantage of the cost on construction of the University Teaching Hospital by Rs. 1,310,332,348 and operational cost of the University by Rs. 1,607,426,436 has been the main cause for the decline in the financial outcome.

When analyzing the financial outcomes of the year under review and the 04 previous years, although surpluses of Rs. 36,566,608 and Rs. 250,842,194 had been generated in years 2012 and 2014 respectively, a deficit had been experienced in the financial outcome in the years 2013, 2015 and 2016. However, once the employee gratuities and depreciation for non- current assets are re-adjusted to the financial outcome, the contribution of the University had grown uninterruptedly from the year 2012 to the year 2014. Nevertheless, a decline of Rs. 168,521,705 was experienced during the year under review compared to the previous year.

3.2 Analytical Financial Review

Several ratios pertaining to short-term and long-term solvency in respect of the financial status as at 31st December in the years 2016 and 2015 are given below:

2016 2015

Long-term Loan Capital to Equity 389 367

229

Capital

2016 2015

(Rs.) (Rs.)

Income Per Student 604,536 747

The long-term loan capital to equity capital and total capital ratio had escalated from the previous year due to obtaining of loans for constructing the teaching hospital by the University. Further, per-student income in the year under review had decreased by Rs. 143,043, or by 19.13% in other words, compared to the previous year.

4. Operational Review

4.1 Performance

The following observations are made:

(a) This University, which had been established under the Sir John Kotalawala Defence Academy Act No. 68 of 1981, had been limited in its function to conduct degree courses associated with defence affairs for officers employed in the defence services until the year 2011. It was elevated to the status of a University in terms of Amendment Act No. 27 of 1988 and the Amendment Act No. 50 of 2007. However, the said Acts did not contain clauses conferring it the power to award degrees to scholars who are not employed in defence services. However, Degree certificates had been awarded to 2,845 external students including 199 foreign students enrolled on fee-levying basis from the year 2011 to 31st December 2016. (b) As at 31st December 2016, 3,073 local students were engaged in educational activities out of whom 1,728 students were on paying basis and 1,345 were Cadet Officers employed in the three forces on free-of-charge basis. During the year under review, 829 local students had been enrolled for 22 courses of study conducted by the University and compared to the 850 students enrolled in the previous year it was a decline of 2.47 %. Only foreign students had been enrolled to the Faculty of Medicine on fee-levying basis and as against the 54 students enrolled during the previous year, only 23 students had been recruited in the year under review. (c) It was revealed during the audit that the University needs to take quick steps to overcome the dual challenges of financial needs and market competition and to enhance incomes adequately. As such, it was observed that the enrolment of local and foreign students on fee-levying basis should be regularized and the need for a competitive course of action to attract foreign students further exists. In order to cater to this need, action had been taken to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding only with the government of Bhutan and the government of Rwanda. (d) Although 340 students were engaged in educational activities in the Southern Campus of the University as at 31 December 2016, it was observed during the audit that the 08 lecture halls allotted for academic activities are not adequate for lectures. Although 166 students had been enrolled to the Faculty of Computing belonging to the Southern Campus by the end of the year under review, adequate computer study facilities had not been provided for them. As a result, the students of the Faculty of

230

Computing were seen to be using a computer laboratory belonging to the Faculty of Built Environment and Spatial Sciences for their studies. As a result of not constructing a permanent library building for the Southern Campus, the Library available for undergraduates was found to be maintained in a pre-cast building with a floor area of 1,152 square feet finished with roofing sheets.

4.2 Management Activities

The following observations are made:

(a) Although 13 lighting systems worth Rs. 26,928,000 had been supplied by 02 private firms by 13th August 2015 for the Operating Theatre of the Teaching Hospital constructed in Werahera area for the Faculty of Medicine of the University, the equipment had been sent back to the firm which supplied it for lack of warehouse facilities.

In addition, a sum of Rs. 19,272,584 equivalent to 80 % of the value was paid for purchasing 06 operating theatre lighting systems with cameras, which are worth Rs. 24,090,730, for the University. Although the goods concerned had been supplied on 10 November 2015, they were sent back to the firm concerned due to lack of stores facilities. As the functions of the teaching hospital were commenced in May 2017, the assets concerned had been purchased before the necessity and left to lie idle at the premises belonging to an external party for over 18 months.

(b) For the purpose of constructing the University Teaching Hospital building, a foreign loan of 177 million US dollars and a local loan of Rs. 3,165,123,000 had been obtained on a Treasury guarantee from the National Savings Bank on 28 March 2013. According to the loan agreement, the University has to pay back fully the money obtained in local currency by the year 2032. However, it was observed that there is a risk to paying back loans due to losses incurred continuously from the operational activities of the University and non-implementation of a course of action to increase the number of students enrolled on fee-levying basis, but the management’s attention has not been focused on it. (c) During the physical inspection carried out on 18th April 2017, it was observed that 08 vehicles of running condition had not been functioning for over one milometer year. As such, the accuracy of the running charts submitted in respect of the vehicles concerned were questionable at the audit while the management’s attention had not been given to bringing milometers back to normal state.

4.3 Transactions Leading to Contention

A building constructed in the Southern Campus at a cost of Rs. 10,948,998 for coconut precursor products and research activities under the Advanced Research and Studies Integration project has been adapted as a students’ physical fitness centre. As a result, it was observed during the audit that the coconut precursor production and research activities scheduled to be conducted by the Southern Campus had not been implemented even by 31st December 2016.

4.4 Procurement and Contract Process

231

The following observations are made:

(a) Although Procurement Plans had been prepared by the University, it contained only the capital expenditure expected to be financed by Treasury grants for the purpose and did not contain the Capital Expenditure borne by the Self-Financing Fund of the University during the year under review. (b) The work of the contract amounting to Rs. 2,871,570 awarded to a private party on 9th March 2015 for the purpose of establishing a water supply system and purchasing water tanks had not been completed even by 31 December 2016. A written agreement had not been entered into for this purpose and a performance security had not been obtained for the movement advances released for this. (c) The Southern Campus premises have 143 acres. Out of it, 18 acres is located in the Sooriyaweva Divisional Secretariat Division of the Hambantota District while 125 acres is located in the Sevanagala Divisional Secretariat Division in the Monaragala District. (d) The portion of land located within the Sooriyaweva Divisional Secretariat Division belongs to the Board of Investment of Sri Lanka and the activities pertaining to the acquisition for the University had not been completed even by 31st December 2016. The physical inspections revealed that although the construction work of the Southern Campus, which was established in the year 2011, should be completed by the year 2018, construction of buildings of the second and third phases occurs slowly due to non-availability of adequate funds. Although environmental recommendations were sought from the Central Environmental Authority in respect of the construction work of the Southern Campus, the Authority had informed that an environmental recommendation could not be given because at the time when the Central Environmental Authority came for the field inspection on 23rd April 2015, part of the proposed constructions had been done. 4.5 Staff Administration

The following observations are made:

(a) The details of the officers of the three forces seconded for the affairs of the University are given below:

Service Number of Staff Number of Non- Total Officers Seconded Staff Officers Seconded

Sri Lanka Army 72 456 528

Sri Lanka Navy 30 351 381

Sri Lanka Air Force 15 122 137

Total 117 929 1,046

232

Although the Committee on Public Enterprises had directed at its Meeting held on 5th March 2013 that the formal approval of the Department of Management Services be obtained for the military personnel attached in addition to the approved cadre of the University, no steps had been taken in that direction even by 31st December 2016. (b) Although the approved number of members on the teaching staff for 05 courses conducted under three Faculties of the Southern Campus is 76, only a staff of 33 members served on the teaching staff. In addition, when analyzing the teaching staff of the Campus, it was found that no Professor had been recruited even as at 31 December 2016 although the approved number is 12 Professors. Although 42 posts of Senior Lecturers had been approved for the Southern Campus, action had been taken to recruit only 12 Senior Lecturers by 31st December 2016.

5. Accountability and Good Governance

5.1 Presentation of Financial Statements

According to Section 6.5 of the Public Administration Circular No. PED/12 dated 2nd June 2003, annual Financial Statements should be presented for audit within 60 days from the end of the Financial Year. However, although he draft Financial Statements of the University had been presented for audit on 28th February 2017, after making adjustments for the accounting deficiencies unveiled at the audit, the amended Financial Statements were presented for audit on 29th June 2017.

5.2 Budgetary Control

The Budget had not been used as an effective management control, as variations of 10 % to 201 % could be observed between the budgeted expenditure and the actual expenditure in transport expenses, contractual services expenses, other expenses and Capital Expenditure during the year under review.

5.3 Unresolved Audit Paragraphs

Although the University Teaching Hospital has been constructed on a land that is 47 acres and 37.9 roods in extent belonging to the Sri Lanka Transport Board, the ownership of land had not been acquired even as at 31 December 2016.

5.4 Composition of the Board of Management

Even during the year under review, the Vice Chancellor of the University, the Secretary to the Board of Management and the Additional Secretary to the Ministry of Defence not cited in the Sir John Kotalawala Defence Academy Act No. 68 of 1981 functioned as the Members of the Board of Management.

6. Systems and Controls

The System and Control deficiencies noticed during the audit were brought to the attention of the Vice Chancellor from time to time. Special attention should be given to the following system and control areas:

233
