The Employment Tribunal spent MVR1.2 million (US$77,821) in excess of the parliament-approved budget in 2013, the institution’s audit report for 2013 made public today has revealed.
An annual budget of MVR5.7 million (US$369,649) for the tribunal had been approved by parliament.
“The overspent amount was facilitated by a budget extension of MVR1,251,429 made to the Tribunal by the Ministry of Finance and Treasury. However, it was observed that the parliamentary approval for this budget extension was not obtained as per clause 32(a) of the Public Finance Act,” the report stated.
