Tribunal de Contas da União : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tribunal de Contas da União
The Tribunal de Contas da União (''Federal Court of Accounts'', often referred to as TCU) is the Brazilian federal accountability office. It is an arm of the Legislative Branch of the Brazilian government, to assist Congress in its Constitutional incumbency to exercise external audit over the Executive Branch. Its members, called ministers, are appointed by the National Congress and the President of Brazil. The TCU employs a highly qualified body of civil servants to prevent, investigate and sanction corruption and malpractice of public funds,〔"''Destaca-se o alto grau de profissionalização e autonomia da burocracia técnica dentro do TCU.''" Thiago Maciel de Aguiar. ''(Análise Institucional do Tribunal de Contas da União e sua contribuição para o processo de consolidação da democracia no Brasil )''. University of Brasília, 2008. p. 20〕 with national jurisdiction. The Tribunal was created in 1891, although its origins are traced back to the Royal Treasury (''Erário Régio''), established in 1808 by King John VI. It is, therefore, one of the world's earlier institutions charged with national government accountability. Today, the TCU cooperates with the Comptroller-General of the Union (CGU), which centralizes federal executive internal audit. The Tribunal's work is scrutinized by the Public Ministry. In 1959 it hosted III INCOSAI, the third triennial convention of the International Organization of Supreme Audit Institutions. The work executed by the TCU in 2011 produced savings of 14 billion reais (USD 7.44 billion) to the Brazilian taxpayer. For each real spent by the court to avert corruption and wasteful spending, 10.5 reais were saved.〔((20/04/2012 15:21) Resultados 2011: TCU gera benefícios de R$ 14 bilhões )〕 ==References== 〔
