Effective use of subventions: The Accounting Chamber analyzed the implementation of its recommendations in the field of intergovernmental relations
The system of providing and using individual subventions has been improved, the level of safety of students and school employees has been increased, the quality of medical services has been improved, and social protection of the population has been strengthened - these are the main results of the implementation by the objects of control in the field of intergovernmental relations of the recommendations of the Accounting Chamber, provided based on the results of audits conducted in 2018-2024 . The corresponding report was approved at the meeting of the Accounting Chamber on April 8.
As noted by the Deputy Chairman of the Accounting Chamber, Sergiy Klyuchka, responsible for this control measure, the analysis of the implementation of the recommendations will allow to increase the level and efficiency of their implementation, in particular by revising some of the recommendations taking into account challenges of today.
In total, during the specified period, the institution conducted 33 audits of the effectiveness of the use of subventions, the amount of funds audited within which amounted to over 45 billion hryvnias.
A selective analysis of the implementation of recommendations for these measures showed: the objects of control implemented more than half of the recommendations provided.
