Please note: this consultation closed on 14 September 2012.
CIPFA consulted on a draft of the Public Sector Internal Audit Standards (PSIAS). The standards were developed in collaboration with the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) and the other Relevant Internal Audit Standard Setters (RIASS)* working together through the Internal Audit Standards Advisory Board.
This set of internal audit standards is applicable to all areas of the UK public sector based on the mandatory elements of the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF).
We believe that this is a ground-breaking development and want to ensure that the PSIAS are of the highest quality. We are therefore interested in your views on all aspects of the new Standards framework.
The Invitation to Comment and full draft PSIAS can be downloaded below.
*The RIASS include HM Treasury, the Scottish Government, the Department of Finance and Personnel Northern Ireland, the Welsh Government, and the Department of Health.
