ZAGREB, Nov 21 (Hina) - The Croatian Sabor on Friday should discuss a State Audit Office report for last year. For this item to be put on the agenda, it is necessary to declassify a special part of the report which relates to the
ministries of defence, the interior, and foreign affairs. This was not done on Thursday because parliament did not have a quorum.

According to the report, budget beneficiaries last year committed
wrongdoing similar to that in previous years. That means they spent
more than planned and obtained goods and services contrary to
prescribed procedures.
It is encouraging, however, that attempts were made by the majority
to remove the irregularities ascertained in previous audits.
A positive evaluation in the 2001 audit was given to the ministries
of culture, education, European integration, and labour and social
welfare, as well as the Croatian Employment Bureau, the Croatian
Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and the State Institute
for the Protection of Families.
