"[While] the clean audit is an outstanding achievement for the municipality, these are objectives we strive to achieve as a matter of course in the day-to-day workings of the municipality, rather than a pursuit to just tick the boxes," she said.

"Overall, we are satisfied with the municipality's achievements. Despite the harsh socio-economic circumstances, we will continue to pursue this objective in coming years," she added.

A clean audit indicated strong financial management, sound internal controls and a robust budgeting process.

The Knysna municipality's audit was performed by Ernst & Young and the results were released on Tuesday (3 December).
