Risk, compliance, and internal audit
The Director General is responsible for developing and maintaining an effective
internal audit function for the department. The Internal Audit Charter is authorised
annually by the Director General and describes how the internal audit team will
operate. The Charter requires compliance with mandatory elements of The
Institute of Internal Auditors' International Professional Practices Framework
and describes measures to ensure the internal audit team's independence and
objectivity.
Internal audit reports are presented to the Director General via the Risk and Audit
Committee as an independent viewpoint on the organisation's risk management,
control and governance processes. The internal audit team monitor progress of
implementation of the recommendations made in internal audits.
In 2022-23, a total of 47 per cent of audit recommendations were successfully
implemented. A summary of internal audit activity is provided in Table 14.
