| Abstract | The relationship between the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and the Supreme Audit Institution (SAI) is essential for maintaining accountability in public financial management. While international models demonstrate strong collaboration between these bodies, the Thai PAC and the State Audit Office of Thailand (SAO) have long exhibited limited engagement, weak communication, and inconsistent oversight practices. This situation has coincided with increasing trends of non compliance, misuse, and mismanagement of public funds. This paper systematically reviews existing literature, compares Thai practices with international standards, and proposes a framework for studying the audit expectation gap (AEG) between the Thai PAC and SAO. Understanding this gap will support institutional reforms, strengthen parliamentary oversight, and enhance the overall accountability ecosystem in Thailand. |
