Luanda — The chief of Angola's Audit Court (TC), Julião António, said Thursday here that the international conference on supervision of public works, taking place in Luanda, aims at providing an extended control of the works and speed up the previous and successive auditing procedures of infrastructures funded by the government.
According to Julião António, who was greeting foreign delegations attending the event, with the ongoing increase of works subject to supervision of Audit Court, it is needed greater strictness in the fulfilment of the contract and their execution.
He added that another reason of the TC's role in the supervision of the public works is the fact that the construction of any undertaking has a direct contact with the citizens' lives.
The Audit Court chief called for the engagement of the participants, with view to transmit the experience in the respective areas of work, adding that the meeting serves to collect useful contributions.
The conference themed "Pre and post supervision of the public works of national reconstruction", was opened Thursday at Luanda's Congresses Palace, by the National Assembly (Parliament) Speaker, Roberto de Almeida, and is part of the celebrations of seventh anniversary of Audit Court, marked on 12 April.
The meeting gathers experts from Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, Brazil, Sao Tome and Principe and Portugal.
