High praise from Nova Scotia’s Auditor General.

Kim Adair says the province has boosted it’s three-year average of completing recommendations from 60 to 80 percent.

She says that includes 100 percent of recommendations from audits done in 2021.

“Including the audit of the pre-primary program, and others done on internet for Nova Scotia, COVID-19 spending programs, and the Nova Scotia Liquor Corporation,” said Adair.

Adair adds it’s the first time in the history of follow-up reports that government has achieved a perfect score in a single year.

“The government’s commitment to carrying out the recommendations shows it values the work and the recommendations made by the Office,” Adair said.

But there is a low-point, the 2019 audit of bridge projects in central and western districts.

She encourages government to act on them, as they’ve only completed two in the last five years.
