Fight Against Corruption, Municipal Controllership, Internal Control BodyAbstract
The performance, in public management, of internal control functions as one of the first filters to fight corruption, mainly in the organs of the municipal public sphere. As there is no methodology that establishes the creation and operation of controllership bodies in the municipalities, each public entity is free to characterize in the way that suits the manager. This study sought to analyze the characteristics that make up the controllership systems in the municipalities of the north forest zone of Pernambuco. To this end, it investigated the characteristics of the controllers in the municipalities, examined the controllership functions performed by the municipal control bodies, identified the control practices adopted by the controllers and proposed ways to expand and improve the actions. Through the methodology used, an exploratory research was carried out, with a descriptive perspective delimiting the characteristics of the controllers, seeking to identify their functions and activities through the application of questionnaires to the managers of the internal control bodies in the municipalities together with a semi-structured interview with two participants. Through the results obtained, it was possible to conclude the absence of parameters for the performance of these bodies, both in their functions and in the requirement for qualification and definition of servers working in the sector. A conflict of interest was also identified between the link and the nature of the position responsible for the sector and its object of control. Finally, important points are raised about the need to change the structure of internal control bodies in Brazilian public administration.
