The State Audit Office revealed million-dollar violations in procurement: what was discovered.

According to inkorr.com: The State Audit Office emphasizes the importance of controlling the efficiency of budget funds usage. The head of the institution, Alla Basalaeva, noted in an interview with the publication 'Glavkom' that this year the main focus is on controlling the rational use of funds for the defense and protection of Ukraine, as well as the efficiency of expenditures for the implementation of projects at the level of territorial communities.

We are fulfilling the tasks set by the Ministry of Finance for the year 2025. The main task of this year is to control the rational use of funds for defense and protection needs of Ukraine. It is also important to verify the effectiveness of expenditures for recovery and the implementation of projects at the level of territorial communities.

Basalaeva emphasized that the greatest problems arise in the control of recovery when the price of concluded contracts can reach millions or even billions of hryvnias.

High-profile stories and audit results

Speaking about specific cases, the head of the State Audit Office stressed that the institution controls all violations. Additional agreements and dubious purchases are under enhanced control. For example, orders for shelter at inflated prices and other dubious purchases.

All these purchases do not remain out of the view of the State Audit Office. We have studied the situation in these matters. An additional contract for procurement for the Lviv Lyceum, concluded on June 20 of this year, was canceled, as was the main contract.

In Krolevets, the situation with the shelter is already better, but violations affected the result of the procurement and forced the education department of the city council to terminate the contract.
