SECRETARY-GENERAL


the status of the Association so as to modernize the Association and commit it to modern governance procedures.


The step to undertake the internal audit was one such agreeable principle to the governance procedures. The Internal Audit


report is expected any time now, and I am very eager to work with the Executive Committee to interpret and implement its recommendations. To sum up my view, I find this time rewarding and refreshing as I compare the current Secretariat Staff discharge of duties at the start of my


tenure in 2007 to the present day. I feel rewarded to have been supported by the Chairperson and Members of the Executive Committee on the various staff reforms carried out during the past years.


I am therefore highly anxious to see the next leadership of the CPA


Executive Committee, by the election of the new Chairperson in Yaoundé, Cameroon this October. I look forward to seeing you all at the conference, and anticipate a very successful business tour of one of the key annual parliamentary activities in the Commonwealth.
