Being a micro-agency, CICS doesn't conduct its own internal audits. CICS is an active member of the Office of the Comptroller General Small Departments and Agencies Advisory Group which provides horizontal internal audits to small agencies.

The creation of CanNor raises the requirement for a key part of the Agency's internal audit function to be undertaken jointly with the Office of the Comptroller General (OCG) as part of small departments and agencies arrangements under Treasury Board Secretariat's Policy on Internal Audit. Preliminary contacts have commenced with the OCG to expedite this process with a view to implementation in 2010–2011. In parallel, supplementary activities will develop a detailed corporate risk profile for the Agency for assessing where supplementary audit projects should be undertaken by the Agency in-house, outside OCG sector-wide audit activities.
The OCG has yet to finalize its sector-wide audit plans for the next three fiscal years — an essential base for developing the Agency's audit plans. The OCG has indicated that the work in this area will be completed by March 2010, which is when the Agency's corporate risk profile is also scheduled for completion. Once both information sources are in place, the Agency can finalize its detailed internal audit plan for the next three fiscal years.

Internal Audits
The following activities are included in the CNSC risk-based Audit Plan for the period 2009-10 to 2011-12. This plan is in the process of being reviewed and updated.
The updated plan will be submitted to the CNSC's Audit Committee in April 2010 for review and recommendation for approval by the CNSC's President. It is based on the current capacity of the CNSC's audit function, risk assessments of proposed audit projects, and management responses and action plans for prior audits for follow-up. The revised plan will outline the projects planned for the upcoming three years. Projects undertaken depend on factors such as resources available to the audit function, the scope and complexity, of projects, and the CNSC's emerging issues and priorities.
The Commission has an Audit Committee with members who are external to the government and internal to the Commission. The Committee is chaired by an external member.
Additional information on the CNSC Internal Audits is available on the CNSC Web site.

Evaluations
In past years, the CNSC oversight focus has been on the internal audit function; however, we are now positioned to undertake the same improvement to the evaluation function. The CNSC began strengthening its evaluation function in Fiscal Year 2009-10, to ensure that it aligns with the new Treasury Board Secretariat Policy on Evaluation, effective April 1, 2009.
Building on work undertaken in 2009-10 (e.g., development of a policy, terms of reference for the evaluation advisory committee, development of the evaluation universe, etc.), the CNSC will continue with the next phase of implementation. This includes staffing, as well as assessing programs to determine the needs and priorities for the development of a three-year evaluation plan.
Additional information on CNSC Evaluations is available on the CNSC Web site.

Changes to the Evaluation Plan do occur from time to time and will be reflected accordingly in future Departmental Performance Reports and Reports on Plans and Priorities.
The Office of the Chief Audit Executive has a three-year risk-based audit plan, which specifies the internal audits to be carried out over this time frame. The plan is refreshed each year to ensure that it continues to address the areas of highest importance. The following table outlines those audits identified for 2010-2011 and 2011-2012. Identified audits, including those identified in the 2009-2010 plan but not completed, will be prioritized in line with available resources.

Audit and Advisory Services has developed an audit plan for 2009-2010 to 2011-2012, which was approved by the Departmental Audit Committee (DAC) in June 2009.

Potential internal audits are identified based on a detailed assessment of risks and controls and take into account external audits conducted by the Office of the Auditor General, the Office of the Comptroller General, the Public Service Commission, etc. Internal audits examine issues related to governance, risk management and controls in support of the department's strategic objectives, programs, activities and management processes. As per government policy, audit reports are posted on Transport Canada's web-site, subject to the provisions of the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.
