He used the occasion to admonish the participants to make use of the knowledge acquired and be more committed to the timely financial reporting system set forth.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe new changes in IPSAS 2003 to IPSAS 2017 is just an extension of upgrading your report on a timely basis and adjusting some financial instruments for sound reporting and decision making\u2019\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n

For his part, the Assistant Director, M & E Reporting, CAGD Sylvester Weah Sr. who led the entire process said comptrollers and accountants have taken a big step ahead in a new change from IPSAS 2003 to IPSAS 2017.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday is also significant in a special way, because we have taken one big step\u201d.<\/p>\n

Weah further explained how the training is intended to strengthen accountants and comptrollers\u2019 capacity by building on the existence of knowledge acquired over the years.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are hopeful that at the end of the day when we leave from here we will see the graph moving upward, and have more energy to report on time\u2019\u2019. Says Mr. Weah<\/p>\n

Reporting Accountants James M. Barbu and Timale K. Zizivily in separate remarks explained how Accountants and Comptrollers from spending entities should focus on the new changes of IPSAS 2003 to 2017 IPSAS.<\/p>\n
