Govt to rectify audit problems

Government departments singled out in the 2011 audit report must rectify the problems and report their results to the State Council by the end of October, a conference presided over by Premier Wen Jiabao said in a statement on Wednesday.

The State Council will make a special report on the rectifications to the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress at the end of this year, it said.

On June 27, China's top auditor delivered the 2011 audit report at a session of the Standing Committee of the NPC.
