- Timeframes presented in the 2009-2010 Report on Plans and Priorities were proposed under the assumption that there would be a full internal audit team as of April 1, 2009 to undertake the identified audit activities.
- Infrastructure Canada’s Internal Audit directorate refreshed the department’s audit universe in January-March 2010 as part of its work to develop the department’s three year Risk-Based Audit Plan. The audit universe represents all aspects of the department as defined major auditable entities (MAEs) that may be subjected to audits and provides an analytical framework for risk assessment. Internal Audit worked with the Finance and Administrative Division to ensure the audit universe is comprehensive. It resulted in an updated universe based on (1) the budget structure of fund centers; (2) the Management Accountability Framework (MAF) elements and (3) the Program Activity Architecture (PAA) structure. The major auditable entities were chosen with the objective of ensuring that each one would be of manageable size, nature and scope, and if audited, it would produce significant and meaningful information for management. When selecting audit engagements for the April 2010 to March 2013 period, the objective was to ensure sufficient coverage of the high-risk and priority areas within the department, as well as contributing to the preparation of a comprehensive overall (holistic) opinion on risk-management, internal controls and governance processes. The timeframes proposed for the internal audits outlined in the 2010-2011 Risk-Based Audit Plan are based on the auditable entities’ priority ranking, and their estimated commencement will depend on the availability of resources within the internal audit function.
