Sierra Leone has ranked at the bottom of the United Nations Development Programme’s Human Development Index for more than 10 years. Like other areas of public administration, the Office of the Auditor General was weakened by the civil war, a lack of resources, and a deterioration of government accountability systems. Weak financial management and information systems, shortages of qualified staff, and a weakened Parliament constrained the office’s ability to act as an independent assessor of government financial activities. In consortium with PKF LLP, the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy, and the Swedish Institute for Public Administration, DAI is worked to improve the quality, quantity, and impact of public sector auditing through support to the Auditor General’s Office, the Public Accounts Committee, civil society groups, and the media through institutional and process development, training, and joint audits. Important aspects of the project included supporting improved audit legislation and the audit framework; assisting in development of the Public Accounts Committee; strengthening human resource capacity and management; providing audit training; improving procedures and practice for public sector external audit through development and testing of audit manuals; and strengthening the role of the Audit Office in the national fight against corruption.
