Africa-Press – Angola. The venerable judge counselor president of the Court of Auditors said Friday (9), in Luanda, that the implementation of the new IT Management System of the Court of Auditors will improve the effectiveness in the successive and continuous inspection of the State’s financial resources.
Exalgina Gamboa said, at the opening of the Seminar on the Digital Transformation Process at the Court of Auditors, that the process is part of the modernization of the judicial system, within the scope of the Reform of the State, Justice and Public Administration, having considered “the second pillar of the Strategic Plan”.
The event featured two panels, under the themes: “Motivation and Consciousness Process”, “The Dematerialization of Processes and Digital Transformation in TCA (Past, Present and Future)”, “The Process of Modernization and Digital Transformation in Public Administration” and “The Future of Work: Digital Transformation Helps Us Be More Productive and Happy”.
He referred that the new Management Information System aims to improve the efficiency of the work, especially in the technical area, as well as to look in depth at all the elements related to the inspection of the State’s financial resources, under the responsibility of public managers who, by legal imperatives , are within the purview of the Court of Auditors, as guardian of the legality of public finances and assets.
The work, he stressed, has been done using the file and procedural instructions on paper, according to the traditional system used in the courts, a practice that has proved to be ineffective for the Court of Auditors, which needs to control and monitor, in real time, the realization of public expenditure.
According to Exalgina Gamboa, the fact that all State bodies, including the judiciary, have started the modernization program at the same time will allow for greater interoperability between the different managers and inspectors, guaranteeing greater external control of financial resources, in benefit of the whole society.
The interoperability of the systems, from the point of view of the venerable judge, will make it possible to improve the work of detecting fraud and combating corruption, enabling faster work and a formal relationship between the institutions for the collection of information for the investigation of illicit acts and the fight against impunity that is often covered by the absence of data.
Greater discipline
The Court of Auditors has evolved in the evaluation methodologies and in the discipline of the subject entities that are beginning to understand the benefits of this work of mutual inspection and the State saves resources to continue investing in economic growth and development, according to Exalgina Gamboa.
He considered that the joint work contributes to the strengthening of the Public Administration and of the superior institutions of control of more effective tools. “Control institutions are, in effect, independent observers who record how public funds are collected and administered with jurisdictional competence to punish misuse under the law,” she said.
“These financial resources have a flow and dynamics that, at present, with the reform of the Public Administration, will be faster and their expenditure faster, with the internal and external control bodies having to accompany this dynamic and create the adequate means to exercise the competences assigned to it”, he stressed.
