Earlier this week HE Governor Rick Todd released the overdue audited report from 2007/2008 through to 2012 to the public.
RTC News today received a statement from the Turks & Caicos Airports Authority setting the record straight that their audited reports were submitted on time.
The release stated, ‘In the interest of transparency, honesty and factual correctness, the Turks and Caicos Islands Airports Authority, have notified the Audit Office and would like to make a correction to the Audit Report issued earlier this week.’
The Board of Directors of the Turks and Caicos Islands Airports Authority (TCIAA) has requested that the Audit Office immediately correct its reported claim that the TCIAA has not submitted audited accounts. All TCIAA Audited reports were presented on time, as per the TCIAA Ordinance. The last two were also presented at Advisory Council meetings, and recorded as being presented (2010/11 and 2011/12).
The 2011/12 was presented at the very last Advisory Council meeting, two copies, one given to the Government’s Permanent Secretary of Finance. In addition to this, ALL Audit statements of the Airports Authority are published on the web site,www.tciairports.com, immediately after being presented.
That was a release sent to RTC news setting the record straight as it is related to their audited report, our newsroom was not able to get a comment as the release was received at the close of business.
