1.2 Audit Scope and objective

Article IV of the Development Credit Agreement (DCA) states that the Republic of TheGambia, through the Department of State for Education's Project Coordinating Unit (PCU),shall maintain records and accounts adequate to reflect in accordance with sound accountingprinciples the operations, resources and expenditures in respect of the Support to the EducationSector Project (SESP). The records and accounts should include expenditures with respect towithdrawals from the credit Account made on the basis of statements of expenditure.

In addition, the records and accounts should be examined for each fiscal year by independentauditors in accordance with appropriate auditing principles consistently applied, a certifiedcopy of the auditor's report being submitted to IDA within six months after the fiscal year end.

In accordance with these requirements the PCU has identified the objectives and scope of thisaudit in its terms of reference as follows:

Objectives

The objective of the audit is to express professional opinion on the financial position of ThirdEducation Sector Project at the end of each fiscal year. The Auditors are also required toexpress separate opinions on the Statement of Expenditure (SOE) and the Special Account (SA)for the funds received and expenditures incurred for the accounting period ended at the samedates.

The program account (books of accounts) provide the basis for preparation of the ProgramFinancial Statements (PFS) and are established to reflect the financial transactions in respect ofthe program, as maintained by PCU.

Scope

The audit is expected to be carried out in accordance with International Standards on Auditingand should include such tests and controls, as considered necessary under the circumstances.In addition special attention should be paid to the following:

Statements of Expenditures (SOEs)

In addition to the audit of the PFS, the auditors are required to audit all SOEs used during the

year under review as the basis for the submission of withdrawal applications. The Auditors are

to apply such tests and controls, as they consider necessary under the circumstances, ensuring

that the existing internal control procedures for the preparation and processing of the said SOEs

are sound and reliable. They are to examine carefully the expenditures to ensure that:

i) they are genuine program expenditures and eligible with regard to the relevant

financing agreements and with reference to the Program Appraisal Document (PAD)for guidance when considered necessary; and

ii) they are reasonable with respect to the planned activities included in the annual workprogram and budget.

Where ineligible expenditures are identified as having been included in withdrawal applications

and reimbursed against, these should be separately noted. Annexed to the Project Financial

Statements should be a schedule listing individual SOE withdrawal applications for specific

reference number and amount. The total withdrawals under the SOE procedure should agree

with the overall reconciliation of bank disbursements prepared by the program and described

above. A separate opinion to that effect will be issued as indicated in the introductory

paragraph.

Special Accounts (SA)

In conjunction with the audit of the PFS, we are also required to prepare Special Account

reconciliation and audit the activities on the Special Accounts associated with the Program. The

Special Account usually comprises but is not limited to:

* deposits and replenishments received from the Bank;* payment substantiated by withdrawal applications;* interest that may be earned from the balances and which belong to the borrower; and

* the remaining balances at the end of the fiscal year.

We will form a separate opinion as to the degree of compliance with the Bank's procedures and

the balance of the SA at the year-end. The audit should examine the eligibility and correctness

of financial transactions during the period under review and fund balances at the end of such a

period, the operation and use of the SA in accordance with the financial agreement, and the

adequacy of internal controls for this type of disbursement mechanism.

For the program, the SA is referred to in the Development Credit Agreement between IDA and

the Government of The Gambia. Special Account Statements and a separate opinion thereonshould accompany the Program Financial Statements.

Internal Control System

The Auditors are required to perform an in-depth and comprehensive review of the programinternal control system. Such a review is expected to be larger in scope than what is normallyrequired for ordinary audits. The objective of the review is to provide control system, includingthe existing administrative, accounting, financial, and budgetary Manual of procedures, and todetermine whether the said rules and procedures are adequate, reliable, and operating correctly.In this vein, the auditor should assess with particular attention and determine whether

i) the computerised financial, accounting, and reporting system in place is appropriate;and

ii) the accounting and financials staff within the PCU is capable of managing the programefficiently using the computerised system.

Our findings and observations are to be presented in a separate report, the Management Letter,addressed along with the audit report to the borrower's representative. The Management Lettershould highlight all the weaknesses in the program internal control system, assess the inherentrisks associated with the intemal control shortcomings, and make practical and relevantrecommendations to improve the system as well as enhance the managerial skills and capabilityof the accounting and financial staff.

- 1.3 Summary of Audit Results

Internal Control

We have assessed the overall intemal control environment of the Project Co-ordination Unit assatisfactory. This was based on the outcome of tests on components of the project's controlenvironment which are assessed as follows:

Control consciousness SatisfactorySegregation of duties SatisfactoryManagement override SatisfactoryCompetence of personnel SatisfactoryProtection of assets and records Satisfactory

2.1 Auditors' Report on the Fund Accountability Statement

We have audited the accompanying Fund Accountability Statement of receipts anddisbursements of the PCU under the IDA Credit to the Third Education Sector Project (creditNo. 3128 - GM) for the year ended 31 December 2003.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund Accountability Statement based on our

audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and WorldBank Guidelines. Those standards and World Bank guidelines require that we plan andperform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Fund AccountabilityStatement is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining on a test basis,evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the Fund Accountability Statement. An

audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made bymanagement, as well as evaluating the overall Financial Statement presentation. We believe our

audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the Fund Accountability Statement gives a true and fair view of cash receiptsand disbursements for the year ended 31 December 2003 in accordance with InternationalAccounting Standards and World Bank Guidelines.
