Follow up of Auditor-General's Performance Audit Reports October 2009 to September 2010 (Inquiry)
This inquiry is a completed Legislative Assembly inquiry conducted by the Public Accounts Committee. Under section 57 of the Public Finance and Audit Act 1983, the functions of the Committee include the examination of any report of the Auditor-General laid before the Legislative Assembly and any circumstances connected with those reports. On 23 June 2011, the Committee resolve to adopt a similar method of examination of the performance audit reports of the Auditor-General to that followed in the 54th Parliament.
Under this approach, the Committee requests all agencies the subject of recommendations or significant comments in a report, 12 months after the tabling of that report, provide a submission outlining the agency’s response, including any action to date. This submission will then be examined, further comment will be sought from the Auditor-General, and the Committee may subsequently hold a public hearing with relevant agency officers to clarify issues or obtain further information. The Committee then will publish the submissions and report on its findings.
The Committee’s examination on the 55th Parliament is commencing with the following Auditor-General's reports tabled between October 2009 and September 2010:
