São Tomé and Príncipe’s General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF-STP) presented its public finance protection practices at the conference of strategic internal control bodies of the Community of Portuguese-speaking Countries (OECI-CPLP), held in Lisbon from 14 to 16 October. The São Toméan delegation was led by Inspector General Virgílio Neto, according to an IGF-STP note sent to RSTP.
The discussions focused on integrity, corruption prevention and the implementation of a guide for audits by internal control bodies. IGF-STP said the conference also enabled member countries of the CPLP, an organisation bringing together Portuguese-speaking states, to share methods, tools and experiences.
São Tomé and Príncipe will host the next OECI-CPLP conference in 2027, the organisation announced at the closing. If it is unable to do so, Angola’s General Inspectorate of State Administration will take charge of the meeting as host country, according to the same note.
