WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

After attending this webinar you will:

  • Have a high level understanding of the MFMA cycle of a municipal entity;
  • Understand the strategic planning and budgeting cycles;
  • Understand financial management from day to day cycles up to annual reporting; 
  • Understand the annual audit process and reporting to Council, COGTA and Treasury; and 
  • Understand the life cycle of unauthorised, irregular and fruitless and wasteful expenditure.

DESCRIPTION

The public sector is highly regulated. As opposed to the private sector, the laws and regulations that govern the financial management of public funds require that actions are only taken by local government if they are compliant with prescripts. 

Governments have a responsibility to provide services to the citizens of a country, to protect and grow the country’s resources and to ensure the creation and maintenance of generational capital for future generations. Service delivery is a complex, multi-faceted concept that is dependant on many variables, some within the control of the country, and some that emanate from global issues. 

In South Africa, the municipal space is guided by laid down MFM processes and reporting requirements. However, despite these structures, the reality is that there is a lot of unauthorised, irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure taking place as highlighted by the Auditor General year in, year out!
