Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko heard a report from Deputy Head of the State Audit Service of Ukraine, Yulia Solianyk, on preparations for audits at energy and defence companies.

"The audit of NNEGC Energoatom is ongoing: inspections are being carried out at 10 branches of the company. We expect interim results at the end of December.

In the 20s of December, inspections will begin in the defence sector, in particular, at 22 enterprises of JSC Ukrainian Defence Industry, as well as inspections at state-owned enterprises of the Ministry of Defence, the Defence Procurement Agency (DPA) and the State Logistics Operator (DOT), for the period 2022-2025. The first results will be available in January," said Yulia Svyrydenko.

The Prime Minister instructed the State Audit Service to report weekly on the progress of the audits and to provide comprehensive information on their conduct to law enforcement agencies.

The Deputy Head of the State Audit Service also reported on the results of monitoring defence procurement carried out by state-owned enterprises of the Ministry of Defence, DPA and DOT for the period 2024-2025.

The monitoring process revealed a number of shortcomings in the organisation and conduct of procurement. Yulia Svyrydenko tasked the responsible authorities with making changes to address these issues.
