The Accounting Chamber of Ukraine plans to begin an audit at NJSC Naftogaz Ukrainy on Friday, July 19.

Accounting Chamber head Valeriy Patskan told reporters after a government meeting on Wednesday that auditors were unable on July 15 to get to Ukrtransgaz, which is wholly owned by Naftogaz.

"As of July 15, our audit group lead by a member of the Accounting Chamber was trying to get to Ukrtransgaz, where there was reportedly no head in the office. We drew up a protocol, registered it in the Unified State Register. Our next action is at Naftogaz on Friday, where, probably, I myself together with Accounting Chamber members will try to introduce our audit group to [Naftogaz CEO] Mr. Kobolev," Patskan told reporters.

"We have provided a list of documents that we need to examine at Ukrtransgaz. The same list will be provided to Naftogaz," he added.
