The entity has received a qualified audit opinion based on the valuation or measurement of its heritage assets.
The Auditor General could not accept the exemption that was granted to all DAC entities due to the fact that it overlooked the Fair presentation assertion that is the foundation of the presentation of annual financial statements as per GRAP 103.
The DAC would follow up on the resolution of the audit findings during the quarterly visits to ensure that there is no recurrence of these.
