High staff turnover at state-owned mining company Alexkor - notably in the finance division - has created instability in key operations, including financial reporting, the AGSA told Parliament's Standing Committee on Public Accounts on Tuesday.

The audit of state-owned mining company Alexkor for 2020/2021 was only concluded in May 2022 due to the late submission of its financial statements for audit.High staff turnover at Alexkor has led to critical gaps in the monitoring of financial reporting, the Auditor General told Parliament.

The audit for 2020/21 still contained material misstatements, including regarding environmental rehabilitation liability, inventories, trade and other payables; as well as taxation, net cash flow from operating and financing activities, and disclosures of the impact of prior period errors for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, Scopa heard. ACSA said the high staff turnover had impacted Alexkor's timely submission of annual financial statements for audit.

Moreover, it led to an impaired ability to ensure appropriate monitoring of financial reporting. Key positions like that of chief financial officer should be filled urgently, said the AGSA.
