*Coltart Speaks On Millions "Missing" From MDC Coffers {Full Text}* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?jt > The report in today’s issue of Newsday about $2 million missing from MDC coffers is false, misleading and alarmist. > For the record, the party has implemented adequate systems to ensure that party funds are used in a transparent and professional manner for the good of the party. > In order to enhance and engender a culture of transparency, which is one of the party’s cardinal values, the MDC has contracted a firm of auditors in line with its Congress resolutions to conduct an audit of the party’s accounts for the year ended 31st December 2019. > The audit currently underway is the first of such routine audits, which has nothing to do with the false reports of any missing funds. > This is the first time any political party in Zimbabwe has subjected its accounts to an audit, and is the part of a wider programme to transform the MDC into a party which meets the best international standards of internal governance. > All political parties should do the same in the interests of transparency and accountability because these are taxpayers’ funds received by political parties under the Political Parties Finance Act. > Currently being conducted is a routine audit to ensure that the party’s finances and accounting systems are given a thorough check in the true spirit of transparency and accountability. I stress this is not a forensic audit. > Neither the Treasurer-General nor the Secretary – General has received reports of any missing funds. Since the MDC is a party of excellence, the findings of the party audit will be furnished to all relevant authorities and organs, including Parliament. > If anything untoward is revealed in the audit, such issues will be addressed then. > Senator David Coltart MDC Treasurer-General itel A50 now available on Pindula at $84 64GB storage, 2GB RAM. _ideal for light usage_ _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
