Descripción | The Supreme Audit Office (SAO) verified how the Forests of the Czech Republic (hereinafter “FoCR”) proceeded in addressing the bark beetle calamity. The SAO also focused on selected items in the financial management of the FoCR between the years 2016 and 2018. According to the auditors, the FoCR and the Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) began to comprehensively address the bark beetle calamity as late as 2019. Also, compared to previous years, the state enterprise sold wood at a price which was not cost-effective. However, the FoCR managed to rectify shortcomings discovered by the SAO during a previous audit, such as FoCR’s management of unnecessary property and the purchase of services. The bark beetle calamity started to escalate in 2016. However, the FoCR responded to this situation only with partial measures, for example, by restricting deliberate logging or by transferring workers to processing wood affected by the bark beetle. The MoA did not force the FoCR to proceed with greater urgency in addressing the calamity. The FoCR adopted a systemic solution only in 2019 in its strategy for the years 2019 to 2024. |
