VPRS 18552 Performance and Assurance Audit Reports to Parliament

This series consists of performance audit reports. A performance audit evaluates whether an organisation or government program is performing economically, efficiently and in compliance with all relevant legislation. These audit reports are the final records of the audit detailing all findings and recommendations. They are tabled in Parliament and are used to highlight any issues of significance to the community and recommend change. These audit report records contain an audit overview, a conclusion, findings, recommendations and responses to the recommendations.   Precisely when reports of this nature began to be produced is subject to further research. The series start date is based on information provided by the agency at the time of transfer around 2017 but isn't necessarily conclusive. The legislative basis governing production of the reports is also subject to further research.
