1. 'No audit qualification' in 2012/13'. The management of Third Party Funds (TPF) has contributed to the Department receiving a qualified audit opinion since 2005/06. Unless the Department is able to resolve its problems relating to Third Party Funds, it will not meet its first priority which is a 'no audit qualification in 2012/13'. The Committee is aware of the considerable effort that the Department has made to attain a 'no qualification audit' in 2012/13 and notes the Department's quiet optimism that it will achieve its goal. The Committee notes too the Department's plans to build capacity at regional level to deal with the TPF internally.
