Audit Office to Conduct 'Thorough' Investigation of Paphos Municipality

The Municipality of Paphos is facing a full audit by the Audit Office following a meeting between acting Mayor Angelos Onisiforou and Auditor General Andreas Papakonstantinou. The investigation focuses on allegations of large sums of money paid to contractors as 'compensatory measures'. Mr. Onisiforou stated that the legality of the procedures will be determined by the investigation of the Audit Office and the Ministry of Interior. The investigation will extend to practices of previous years and will also examine the management of Turkish Cypriot properties. The exact date of the auditors' arrival is expected within the next week, marking a period of transparency for the Municipality.
