Opening conference with Minister of Finance

The Minister of Finance, Dumitru Budianschi, attended the opening session of the event. He mentioned that internal managerial control is one of the key components of streamlining public administration and strengthening managerial accountability for the efficient use of public money. "Despite the fact that we have a fairly solid regulatory framework on public internal financial control, the results confirmed by the monitoring reports of the Ministry of Finance, Court of Accounts and Financial Inspection, attest to situations in which internal managerial control and internal audit is poorly implemented. In these conditions, it is necessary that from that passive framework, established at regulatory level, the Internal Management Control to become the driving force for the development of public sector institutions.”
