It further found that the NCRA has 10 vehicles allocated: 1 each to Board Chairman, Director General, Deputy Director-General, IT Director, and 6 to the Operations Department.

It added that the the Authority has 15 District Registration Offices across the country from the funds disbursed in the 2016 budget allocation.

The Authority has two programmes/projects financed from the Consolidated Fund: Nationwide Civil Registration Programme – Le 39bn (ongoing) and Procurement, Printing and Issuance of Biometric ECOWAS National Identity – Le95.3bn (to be started)

The Authority currently has only one service contract for the Procurement and Supply of Biometric Registration Kits and other related services. The services have been fully delivered and 90% of the payment has been made to the supplier (Le 11.9bn leaving Le 1.3bn overdue)

The report recommended looking into the support NCRA is getting from donors and to ensure there is value for money; review the membership into the Board to reflect the true nature of the legal provisions and that the Minister should follow up on the liabilities of NCRA to Thomas De La Rue.
