What were the results of the most recent audits of UNDP operations in DPRK?
UNDPs operations in DPRK underwent regular internal audits in 1999 (KPMG Malaysia), 2001 (KPMG Malaysia) and 2004 (UNDP Office of Audit and Performance Review). As is normal, certain deficiencies were identified and management followed up by addressing the deficiencies (per the below). UNDPs external auditors have had full access to these internal reports (and all other materials) and have not raised any concerns about our UNDP operations in DPRK. The next regularly scheduled internal audit was to have taken place in the first quarter of 2007 but has been superseded by the external audit called for by the Secretary General.
