The project company is the private investor and the contracting authority which is a Government institution coming together and forming a project company for purposes of moving the project forward. So, what we are doing here is to have a balance. We had a big debate around this issue of auditing by the Auditor General for the project company. So, what we have said is, where we found a balance, that the Auditor General shall audit accounts of the project company where the counterpart funding for a project includes public funds. Where all monies for the project are provided by a project party, the accounts of the project company shall be audited annually by a reputable audit firm appointed in consultation with the National Treasury."}
