     The Chief Executive, Mrs Carrie Lam, met the Auditor General of National Audit Office (NAO), Ms Hu Zejun, at Government House this afternoon (March 26). The Secretary for Constitutional and Mainland Affairs, Mr Patrick Nip, and the Director of Audit, Mr John Chu, also attended the meeting.
      
     Mrs Lam welcomed Ms Hu's visit to Hong Kong, noting that it is the first time for the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) to receive the NAO Auditor General in Hong Kong and that both of them are the first woman to take up their respective positions, making the meeting exceptionally meaningful.
      
     Mrs Lam said that, with the rising national power and international influence of the country, the status of the NAO in international auditing has been further consolidated. Thanking the NAO for allowing members of the Audit Commission of the HKSAR to participate in the meetings of the International Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions and the Asian Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions as members of the delegation of the People's Republic of China after Hong Kong's return to the motherland, she expressed the hope that the NAO will continue its support for the HKSAR's work and provide more opportunities for it to contribute in international affairs. She also expressed the hope that the two places will further strengthen exchanges and co-operation in the field of auditing in the future.
