ADDRESS BY ELMER B. STAATS.
COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES

BEFORE THE II SEMINAR OF THE
SENIOR GOVERNMENT AUDITING AGENCIES

MAY 13 - 16, 1980

MEXICO CITY, D.F.

LAUDITING IN THE AMERICAS:

WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS

I am pleased to participate in the Second Seminar of

the Senior Government Auditing Agencies, and commend you

for your efforts to enhance Government accountability by

improving the mechanisms used to control and audit Government

revenue and expenditures. Just as there are many ways to

do this, there are many approaches to be taken in a speech

addressing this topic. I have chosen a theme which pervades

most of the Seminar's objectives--the need for better pro-

fessional development opportunities for accountants and

auditors in developing countries. More specifically, I

would like to discuss the urgent need for the more developed

countries and international organizations to share their

financial management knowledge, skills, and resources with

less developed nations of the world. Q
