| Comments | The Supreme Audit Office (SAO) examined the European funds distributed by the capital city Prague to combat poverty and to support social inclusion from 2014 to 2017. This was one of the priority axes of the Operational Programme Prague — Growth Pole of the Czech Republic. In total, over CZK 1.3 billion has been earmarked for the budget of this axis with a possible funds drawing until 2023, where around half of it will be covered by EU funds. The SAO focused on how the support had been managed and distributed by the capital. The SAO has also checked 22 projects for 17 beneficiaries totalling almost CZK 119 million. The auditors reviewed not only their compliance with the legislation, but also whether the projects were effective and efficient and whether the programme had proven benefits in the fight against poverty and for social inclusion. In all of these areas, the SAO has identified shortcomings. |
