The MSC Mission Office Australia Inc. has a defined governance process. This process ensures that:
- Funds received as donations are used as directed by the donor
- Funds are used according to our policy of accountability and transparency
The process requires that:
- Application forms with a quotation be completed and approved by a local authority. e.g- MSC Mission Offices are established in Papua New Guinea, Fiji (Central Pacific), India, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam and Africa.
- The applications are forwarded to the Board of the MSC Mission Office Australia Inc, which either accepts or rejects the applications in accordance with the defined protocol.
- If the application has been approved, the allocated funding is transferred to an approved overseas account.
- At the completion of a project the applicant is required to complete an acquital form, along with a project report with receipts (if required) and photo's and forward them to the MSC Mission Office Australia.
