Accounting Officer's Responsibilities and Approval
The accounting officeris required by the Municipal Finance Management Act (Act 56 of 2003), to maintain adequate
accounting records and is responsible for the content and integrity of the audited annual financial statements and related
financial information included in this report. It is the responsibility of the accounting officer to ensure that the audited annual
financial statements fairly present the state of affairs of the municipality as at the end of the financial year and the results of
its operations and cash flows for the period then ended. The external and internal auditors are engaged to express an
independent opinion on the audited annual financial statements and were given unrestricted access to all financial records
and related data.
The audited annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with General Recognised Accounting
Standards (GRAP) including any interpretations, guidelines and directives issued by the Accounting Standards Board.
The audited annual financial statements are based upon appropriate accounting policies consistently applied and supported
by reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates.
The accounting officeracknowledges that heis ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial control established
by the municipality and place considerable importance on maintaining a strong control environment. To enable the
accounting officer to meet these responsibilities, the sets standards for internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error
or deficit in a cost effective manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined
framework, effective accounting procedures and adequate segregation of duties to ensure an acceptable level of risk.
These controls are monitored throughout the municipality and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical
standards in ensuring the municipality’s business is conducted in a manner that in all reasonable circumstances is above
reproach. The focus of risk management in the municipality is on identifying, assessing, managing and monitoring all known
forms of risk across the municipality. While operating risk cannot be fully eliminated, the municipality endeavours to
minimise it by ensuring that appropriate infrastructure, controls, systems and ethical behaviour are applied and managed
within predetermined procedures and constraints.
The accounting officeris of the opinion, based on the information and explanations given by management, that the system
of internal control provides reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of the
audited annual financial statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable, and not
absolute, assurance against material misstatement or deficit.
The audited annual financial statements set out on pages 4 to 80, which have been prepared on the going concern basis,
were approved by the on August 31, 2016 and were signed by him:
