The government should take immediate action to solve the problem.<\/p>\n<p>Divergences persist between the amounts spent by the various State bodies to purchase goods.<\/p>\n<p>The court noted that there was still a prevailing omission in the regularisation of property titles, insurance policies for real estate and State vehicles in various state bodies and institutions.<\/p>\n<p>The Administrative Tribunal is the body that supervises the legality of public expenditure, being the highest court in administrative, fiscal and customs matters .<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
