Annual Audit Quality Monitoring report
We produce an Annual Audit Quality Monitoring report under the Appointing Person arrangements. It covers three headline indicators of compliance with professional regulation, client satisfaction, and contractual compliance, with relevant supporting information.
We anticipate that our annual report will be published following the completion of the 2023/24 audits.
Client survey
As part of our contract monitoring arrangements we undertake a survey of opted-in bodies to obtain feedback on their audits of accounts.
For the 2023/24 audits (the start of the second appointing period) we will issue the survey shortly after the auditor has given their opinion. If your audit opinion is given in September or October 2024 you will receive a survey during November.
We encourage you to provide open and frank feedback; all responses are treated confidentially unless you give us your permission to share this with your auditor. The survey recognises the importance of the auditor’s relationships with both Management and Those Charged With Governance.
The results of the survey will be published in Summer 2025, following the 2023/24 audit backstop date.
