Geumcheon-gu Achieves Highest Grade (A) in 2023 Board of Audit and Inspection Self-Audit Activity Review

Institutional Commitment, Capability, and Performance Evaluation on Internal Control Significantly Superior to Other Districts

Geumcheon-gu (Mayor Yu Seong-hoon) announced that it achieved the highest grade, A, in the '2023 Self-Audit Activity Evaluation' conducted by the Board of Audit and Inspection.

The 'Self-Audit Activity Evaluation' is a system that reviews the operation status of self-audit organizations established in central administrative agencies, local governments, and public institutions, as well as the results and handling of self-audits. This year, the Board of Audit and Inspection evaluated 676 institutions based on two areas, 'Internal Control Support' and 'Self-Audit Activities,' with 24 indicators, assigning four different grades (A to D) to each institution.

Geumcheon-gu achieved the highest grade, A (3rd place), in the evaluation group consisting of 33 autonomous districts nationwide with populations under 300,000. In particular, it received outstanding scores in the 'Internal Control Support' area, which assesses the institution's commitment, capability, and performance regarding internal control. The 'Internal Control Support' area was newly established this year.

To strengthen internal control, Geumcheon-gu is implementing measures such as ▲ granting the audit organization head the authority to select audit personnel ▲ forming a dedicated anti-corruption and integrity promotion team ▲ operating an IT-based autonomous internal control system ▲ running a citizen auditor program ▲ continuously monitoring complaints in corruption-prone areas.

Yu Seong-hoon, Mayor of Geumcheon-gu, stated, “Through continuous internal control and meticulous self-audit activities, we will create a corruption-free public service culture and become a clean Geumcheon recognized by the residents.”
