An internal audit gets underway within the Fiji Trade and Investment Bureau from this morning to investigate certain anomalies within the financial systems being used by the institution.
The Ministry of Trade and Commerce has called for the audit which has led to the Chief executive Officer Annie Rogers and the General Manager Tupou Raturaga being sent on leave for a week to allow for the internal audit.
The Attorney General and Minister for Commerce Aiyaz Sayed said all they can say at this stage is that these anormalies need to be cleared.
The Auditor General Tevita Volanivanua told fijivillage that they will set out the terms of reference for the audit this morning, however, he could not confirm the reasons why the audit has been called for.
A team from the Ministry of Finance will also assist the Auditor General and his team in the audit.
Meanwhile, newly appointed FTIB Chairman Adrian Sofield will overlook the work of the CEO and General Manager until the audit is completed
