ISLAMABAD: The cabinet has approved an ambitious restructuring plan to make the department of the Auditor General of Pakistan (AGP) an autonomous body with administrative and financial powers delegated to the Auditor General of Pakistan. The plan will also address the issue of the maximisation of audit paras, some of which are trivial and peripheral in nature.
According to the restructuring plan, proposed by the Dr Ishrat Hussain-led top government civil service reforms body and approved by the cabinet, it is imperative to restructure the Department of the AGP to make it a modern, professional organisation. This will be done by upgrading the quality of human resources, the automation and digitisation of business processes to speed up the preparation of audit reports while minimising interaction between the auditor and those being audited and conferring operational autonomy to the AGP to carry out its functions.
