The North West Provincial Covid-19 procurement report presented during a media briefing by Premier Job Mokgoro in August, in his capacity as Chairperson of the Provincial Coronavirus Command Council, attracted much attention.
The report deals with the procurement of Covid-19 related items and expenditure incurred during the lockdown period by provincial government departments.
The report stated that the office of the Provincial Internal Audit will audit all Covid related procurement, including that of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and that the audit findings would be made available before 31 August 2020.
