Miguel Nanni assumed the presidency of the General Audit of the Province of Salta with the stated goal of improving response times and regaining public trust in the organization. His election as head of the Auditors' Association was unanimous after the integration of its five members was completed.
The former legislator stated that his new responsibility requires abandoning party logic and adopting a technical criterion. The Audit Office exercises external control of the provincial public treasury and analyzes what was done with the resources provided by citizens. Nanni pointed out that his previous experience in drafting laws and budgets must now be used from the side of oversight.
One of his diagnoses is that the agency is late in some of its controls. He stated that the delay reduces the impact of the reports and that there are public disagreements that have harmed the institutional image. His priority will be to normalize operations, organize overdue files, and prevent attention to those cases from displacing the review of new matters.
Nanni defined control as a financial and legal task that must also assess economy, efficiency, and effectiveness. He suggested that auditors should express themselves through objective reports and not use the institution to act as support or opposition. That independence will be a central criterion to measure the consistency between their announcements and the documents produced by the body.
To reduce the backlog, he anticipated agreements with Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas and Universidad Nacional de Salta. He also proposed incorporating artificial intelligence to process information and strengthen controls. The tools, data protection protocols, implementation timelines, and case files that would be prioritized with that assistance have not yet been detailed.
The new president committed to returning within six months with quantifiable results. The promise sets a concrete horizon for accountability, but the announced improvements still need to be executed. His performance can be evaluated by the effective reduction of delays, the technical quality of reports, the publicity of his conclusions, and the ability to maintain independence from controlled actors.
