The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) of the Chamber of Deputies will hold public hearings from 25 June to 10 July 2026, during which 76 public institutions will be called to account for financial and asset management weaknesses identified in the Auditor General’s Report for the fiscal year ended 30 June 2025.
“Our primary objective is to ensure that every public penny is utilized for its intended purpose, expended in a timely manner, and managed without wastage. Public hearings are not solely intended to point out mistakes; they also provide an opportunity for public institutions to show corrective measures they intend to undertake to address identified deficiencies and enhance performance, towards promoting the efficient management of public resources for the benefit of Rwandans.” – PAC Chairperson, Valens Muhakwa
The 76 institutions, projects, and entities were strictly selected based on specific risk indicators identified in the Auditor General’s report:
- Critical Audit Opinions: Entities that received an adverse opinion across financial, compliance, or value-for-money audits.
- Value-for-Money Gaps: Entities that were issued a qualified opinion, specifically in respect of value-for-money performance audits.
- Implementation of Auditor General recommendations: Entities that implemented less than 80% of previously issued Auditor General recommendations, regard being had to the severity of the unresolved issues.
- Specialized Scrutiny: Entities that were the subject of comprehensive performance audits, special audits, or information technology system audits.
