On 10 February 2017, President of the European Court of Auditors (ECA) Klaus-Heiner Lehne and Polish Member of the ECA Janusz Wojciechowski visited NIK. The main topics of the discussion were the cooperation between NIK and the ECA and new trends in the ECA’s activity. The two institutions have an opportunity to collaborate, among others, in the audits of air quality and animal welfare, and they can expand present cooperation (assistance in proceeding with NIK’s motions related to the EU functioning; circulation of documentation between the ECA and administration bodies in Poland; participation of NIK in the ECA’s audit missions; identification of potential cooperation areas). The evolution of the ECA’s role was also discussed, aimed at better responding to the interests of the public opinion and institutions of the EU. This calls for more performance audits and for reducing the number of transactions in financial auditing. The ECA should play a role of an “early warning body” through, for example, recognising corruption prone mechanisms.
