Accountability
Accountability
The Ministry of Finance notes that Selikor is apparently not used to extensive accountability. This can be seen in the late submission of the audited annual reports and the so-called management reports that are not submitted in full.

In order to qualify for the third tranche of liquidity support, Selikor must meet all the conditions set, Finance warns. Furthermore, Selikor must account for the expenditure of the second tranche. The Ministry of Health and the Environment must ensure that the inspection of the performance of the work by Selikor takes place in good time so that any necessary adjustments can be made in time.
