JAYAPURA - After recording a record eight consecutive times winning the title of Reasonable Without Exception (WTP) by the Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia (BPK RI) since 2015, Papua Province in 2022 financial reporting only received a Fair With Exception (WDP) opinion.
This is as stated in the Plenary Meeting for the submission of the BPK RI Examination Results Report (LHP) on the Regional Government Financial Statements (LKPD) of Papua Province for the 2022 fiscal year at the Papua House of Representatives, Jayapura City, Friday (12/5/2023).
The unsatisfactory result was acknowledged by the Acting Governor of Papua Muhammad Ridwan Rumasukun due to the transition in the management of the Special Autonomy Fund and the expansion of three New Autonomous Regions (DOB) which had an impact on fiscal capacity.
However, he said the result was also a correction for all relevant parties in Papua to work better and optimally in 2023.
"The Papua Provincial Government has tried to present financial statements by Government Accounting Standards (SAP) supported by adequate internal control. But today it gets the title of WDP opinion as a correction for all of us to work better in the future," he said.
The Main Auditor of State Finance VI, Laode Nusriadi who handed over the LHP directly to the Acting Governor of Papua stated that the results of the examination showed that there were still major problems affecting the presentation of financial statements.
There is a realization of expenditures worth IDR 1.57 trillion that exceeds the main budget with details of Goods and Services Expenditure worth IDR 403.70 billion, Grant Expenditure worth IDR 437.44 billion, Social Assistance Expenditure worth IDR 27.54 billion, Capital Expenditure IDR 566.11 billion and Unexpected Expenditure IDR 141.02 billion.
"Actually, for the exceeding realization of these expenditures, the Papua Provincial Government has set a budget change. However, the determination of the budget changes was not through the approval of the DPRP and the approval of the Minister of Home Affairs."
"So that the implementation and substance of the expenditure do not fully meet the criteria. As a result, the Audit Board of the Republic of Indonesia cannot determine the necessary adjustments to the exceeding realization of these expenditures and their impact on the presentation of Papua Provincial Government expenditures in 2022," he said. ***
