The Efficiency of Internal Public Audit Activity for the Local Public Administration

The public administration is subject to major changes, due to major changes within the Romanian society and ever growing requirements of efficiency, effectiveness and economy. Given a certain conflict between support activities which are at times most expensive and these requirements, a race is on for optimizing these activities from a financial point of view. This paper is the result of a research that has taken place in the years 2009 and 2010, and proposes a way to reach a better state regarding the internal public audit.
