"All the audit committee members are CIDB officers who served as non-independent directors," it said. The service timeframe as well as roles and function were not included in the chairman's letter of appointment.These were among the weaknesses outlined in the report."Financial position is solid, but there are weaknesses in the company's credit management," it said.CIDB provided RM42.53mil in grants for CIDBEC to carry out training programmes and Building Information Modelling accreditation.

"Up to October last year, there was no written directive or clear guideline from CIDBEC on fee collection," it said.
