PSAA has published its Contract Monitoring Data Pack: Quarter 4 for 2023/24. We produce quarterly reports on our contracted firms, building up information as the year progresses. The data pack covers audit opinions, approved fee variations and electors’ objections as of 31 March 2024.
The timeliness of audit delivery remains a matter of major concern to all stakeholders. This quarter a further 129 audit opinions were completed, resulting in 642 audit opinions still outstanding. This includes three opinions that relate to audits prior to 2018/19.
Local audit system partners, including PSAA, are working collectively to agree a solution that is acceptable technically and practically, to clear the outstanding historical audit opinions and ensure that delays do not return.
Contract monitoring data packs for previous quarters are available to view on our website.
