GOVERNMENT is enhancing the accountability of internal audit function within government through the establishment of an internal audit committee to oversee audits, says Attorney General and Economy Minister Aiyaz Sayed Khaiyum.

And, he said, where necessary, permanent secretaries have been empowered to initiate prosecution to combat abuse of taxpayers’ funds.
