Asmara — The Office of Auditor General drew up a 5-year strategic plan for the period 2007-2011 on the basis of its internal capacity, according to Gerezgher Gebremedhin, director general of the Audit Department. He said that it took about 6 months to prepare the plan.
Indicating that the International Supreme Audit Institution (INTOSAI) nominated Eritrea, Kenya, Switzerland, Mauritius and Gambia to prepare a strategic plan at an international level, Mr. Gerezgher pointed out that the plan Eritrea has drawn up is believed to be the best, and this was officially disclosed at a meeting held in Switzerland.
