1991 CAG Paras Still Pending - FM Concerned
IN a meeting with Financial Advisers, held on 20.10.2011, the Finance Minister observed that 1991 CAG paras are pending with various Ministries/Departments. (It is not clear whether 1991 is the number of audit paras or the year from which the paras are pending). Standing Audit Committees have been constituted to oversee the settlement of pending audit paras. In order to ensure speedy liquidation of these paras, the FM has directed that Secretaries to Ministries/Departments should personally chair the meetings of the Standing Audit Committees.
