Compliance Audit

Assessment of whether public activities and transactions comply with applicable authorities.

Compliance audit assesses whether public institutions, activities and transactions conform to applicable laws, regulations, approved budgets, policies, contracts and procedures. The engagement identifies the authorities and criteria relevant to the selected subject matter.

Audit work may examine budget execution, procurement, revenue, expenditure, payroll, assets, authorisations and record keeping. Evidence is evaluated to determine the nature and significance of any identified non-compliance.

Reporting distinguishes significant matters, explains their effect and provides recommendations intended to support lawful, consistent and accountable administration.
