Audit Reports, GWP Waf accounts audited

In the 2015accounts audit report, the auditor's conclusion was the following: "We believe that the financial report of the Regional Water Partnership for West Africa (GWP/WA) and the CWPs (Burkina and Ghana) accurately reflect the statement and financial position of the Regional Water Partnership for West Africa and the CWPs (Burkina and Ghana) as of 31st December 2015, consistently with the GWP financial procedures.”

The way forward in 2016 is to strive to implement all partially implemented recommendations including those made in 2014 and those made as of 31st December, 2015. It should be noted that almost all new recommendations dating from 31st December 2015 have already been implemented prior to the finalization of the audit report in 2015 in Burkina Faso and for the region.

 

 

2015 Mekrou accounts audit report and letter of recommendation

Apart from CWP Niger where there are still partially or non-implemented recommendations of 2014, virtually all recommendations made as of 31st December 2014 were implemented by CWP Burkina, CWP Benin and GWP/WA. It should be noted that almost all new recommendations stated as of 31st December 2015 have already been implemented before the finalization of the audit report in 2015 in Burkina Faso and by GWP/WA.

The way forward in 2016 is to learn from the weaknesses identified in 2015 and implement all recommendations made as of 31st December 2015 to comply with specific European Union procedures and achieve better financial management at all levels, especially in the Country Water Partnerships.

A follow up mission in Niger is planned for April to meet and discuss with the CWP and its host Institution, Eau Vive Niger.
