Trinidad and Tobago -Institutional Strengthening of the Auditor’s General Department (TT-T1024)

The objectives and components of the project were directly aligned with the IDB-financed Programmatic Policy-Based Loan series entitled “Public Capital Expenditure Management Program”.
The project aimed to provide technical assistance to the AGD (i) to address the critical governance and institutional weaknesses that adversely affect the performance of its duties namely in the areas of audit coverage, professional skills and independence; and (ii) to heighten public accountability (focused on accounting practices) to the society, particularly as it concerns the Parliament (Public Accounts Committee).
