A US audit says that at least $8.8

billion given to Iraqi ministries by the former occupation authority in Baghdad has not been accounted for.

The audit by the Coalition Provisional Authority's own Inspector General blasts the CPA for "not providing adequate stewardship" of at least $8.8 billion from the Development Fund for Iraq that was given to Iraqi ministries.

The audit is to be published soon.

The development fund is made up of proceeds from Iraqi oil sales, frozen assets from foreign governments and surplus from the UN Oil for Food Programme. Its handling has already come under fire in a UN-mandated audit released last month.
