Saxon State Court of Audit presents annual report

The Saxon State Court of Audit will present the first volume of this year's annual report on Thursday (11.00 a.m.) in Dresden. Among other things, it deals with the budget situation of the Free State and the construction of school buildings. The authority's experts have also scrutinized the Saxon state baths in Bad Elster and Bad Brambach as well as the catering of prisoners in prisons. The report will be presented by the head of the authority, Jens Michel, and his colleagues. Michel once described the Court of Audit as the "financial conscience of the Free State of Saxony". The authority, based in Döbeln, is an independent institution that audits the budgetary and economic management of the state and also carries out checks at local authority level.
