As assets held by governments and the private sector are exceptionally valuable, (particularly capital assets). Therefore assuming their custody and stewardship is of great importance. Equally important is the need to provide for their maintenance and timely replacement. Today the collaboration between public and private sectors in the form of joint acquisition, management and maintenance of these assets means that great attention ought to be paid to issues of management of these assets to be able to serve the needs and interests of these different stakeholders. Information about the stock, assets transferred under property law and other arrangements, the cost of use, the need for replacement is therefore vital for decision making and to protect public assets from misuse and encroachment. It is seen that assets are the very mainstay of a public and private enterprise's existence and its nancial and operational wellbeing. As such the entire accounting and internal control framework revolves around the management of assets. This three days workshop is aimed at addressing issues relating to Public Assets Ageing Maintenance, Disposal of Assets, Asset Registering, Asset Accounting/Reporting, and Government Leases.
