The office has also improved coordination with the Government Inspectorate, ministries, sectors and localities to avoid overlaps and provide timely reports for parliamentary and agency oversight.
He said audit efforts had prioritised issues of major public concern and areas at high risk of corruption and wastefulness. To strengthen land-related audits, the office had reviewed urban planning, construction permitting, land-related revenues and the management and handling of public assets. It had also issued detailed guidance requiring each audit to identify wasteful practices, clarify causes and responsibilities, along with concrete remedial recommendations.
Tuan emphasised the importance of internal discipline, professional ethics, and conduct rules for auditors. He noted that all audits had passed quality control checks and were further reviewed through direct inspections of audit teams. The industry has boosted performance standards, with professionalism and ethics remaining at the heart of its principles.
Looking ahead, the SAV plans to adopt more technology-based audit methods and concentrate on thematic and high-risk areas to improve the management of public finance and assets, and reinforce anti-corruption efforts, he stated.
Deputies acknowledged the office’s contributions to fiscal discipline and the fight against corruption and wrongdoings, while recommending stronger legal frameworks and better coordination mechanisms.
