Public Sector Internal Audit Standards (PSIAS) |
The report of the Chief Internal Auditor gave details of the introduction of the Public Sector Internal Audit Standards (PSIAS), with effect from 1 April 2013. The PSIAS arose from the collaboration of CIPFA (Chartered Institute of Public Finance) and CIIA (Chartered Institute of Internal Auditors) on a set of unified public sector internal audit standards to replace the Local Code of Practice for Internal Audit. It was considered that the processes in place for conducting and reporting internal audit activity at Tonbridge and Malling would meet the new standards. RECOMMENDED: That the Council adopt the standards contained within the PSIAS for the provision of Internal Audit. *Referred to Council |
