 Principe of work
Principe of work is as follows:
 We receive reports from Audit office
 Then we send these reports to the member of Board,
which consists of nine members (because it is
impossible that all members review all received reports)
 After reading reports, each member of the Board
presents his views with arguments and
recommendations in case any of these audit reports
should be forward to consideration to the National
Assembly
 After the Board makes decision about forwarding reports
to the National Assembly, Board organizes public
hearings
 After the public hearing Board makes its conclusions and
views which are discussed at the session of the
Assembly
 Public hearings

In case of all negative reports we organized

public hearings.
The public hearings are attended by
representatives of the Audit office (the
Auditor-General with assistants),
representatives of the Institution audited,
representatives of the relevant ministries
and the media (the public)
The results of public hearings are less
negative audited reports than in previous
years and bigger responsibility of budget
users in spending public money.
