The conference was organised in November 2013 by the Network of the Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) of the EU Candidate and Potential Candidate Countries (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey) and the European Court of Auditors, with significant support from SIGMA. The objective of the conference was to exchange information and to establish closer relations between SAIs and parliaments: this goal was achieved by the participation of high rank representatives of these bodies, important presentations, lively discussions and informal contacts. Despite differences between individual countries, representatives of SAIs and parliaments unanimously agreed that their institutions need to cooperate, as it is a prerequisite for accountability of the public administration.
