The President of the Republic Mr. Nicos Christodoulides received today, at the Presidential Palace, the Auditor General of the Republic Mr. Odysseus Michaelides.
After the meeting, Mr. Michaelides told reporters that it was a formal meeting, adding that "I think it was very constructive, in a very good atmosphere.
I believe the objectives of the Audit Service, to highlight problems is something that can prove to be a useful tool for the Government and to prevent problems and where problems are subsequently identified, to take corrective measures. I believe that the intentions of the President of the Republic are such that will help to have a good cooperation between our Service and the Government and I hope that in practice this cooperation will prove to be mutually beneficial for both."
Asked if there was any issue that dominated the discussion, Michaelides replied that "no, we had various issues of general interest and planning. I also explained the way our Service works, although the President is already quite familiar with the subject, having been a Minister previously. We didn't have anything special or an agenda in our meeting, it was an exchange of views and mutual information on how we both see the basis for this cooperation."
