Annual general report of the controller and - Parliament of Tanzania

have to be forwarded for signatures. On 5th May, 1999
ISW forwarded a new contract for signatures and
requested a second payment of annual fee. Mobitel
letter of 14 th April 1999 confirmed that the original
lease agreement signed by both parties disappeared and
therefore agreed the idea of ISW of signing a new
contract. The existing copy of signed contract between
the parties bears various corrections and alterations
which seem to be informal. ISW via its letter
ISW/AGC/M.32/37 of 18 th April, 2008 requested MIC to
meet and review a contract and failure of turn up would
mean a notice of termination. However, to the date of
this audit (December 2008), no evidence of review and
termination was provided despite the delay in settling
of ISW invoices for 2007/08 and 2008/09.

Sokoine University of Agriculture
Review of the contract between the Government of
Tanzania and Sokoine University of Agriculture on the

July 1977. The last contract covered 10 years period from
1997 to June 2007, since then, the contract has not been
renewed and the University has been running the forest
