Criminal Justice Inspection publishes its
2006-07 Annual Report and Accounts
 
Criminal Justice Inspection Northern Ireland (CJI) has presented its third Annual Report and Accounts to Parliament following its approval by the Comptroller and Auditor General of the National Audit Office.
 
The report tracks the progress of the Inspectorate during 2006-07. It also incorporates a brief summary of the inspection reports and action plan/follow-up reviews published by the organisation.
 
A review of the Inspectorate’s performance against its objectives and targets for the financial year included in the Annual Report shows CJI achieved over two thirds of its 15 stated targets.
 
“I am delighted to have been able to submit this document to Parliament and to place on record the valuable work which has been carried out over the course of 2006-07,” said Kit Chivers, Chief Inspector of Criminal Justice in Northern Ireland.
 
His words were echoed by CJI’s Chief Executive and Accounting Officer Brendan McGuigan who remarked: “I am very pleased to see that yet again, the Inspectorate has secured a clean certificate from the Comptroller and AuditorGeneral of the National Audit Office who recorded that he had no observations to make on the financial statements supplied to him.”
