Table 4: Internal Audits and Evaluations

The following internal audits were underway or planned for completion during the 2008-09 fiscal year:


Table 4a: Internal Audits (current reporting period)
Name of Internal Audit Audit Type Status Completion Date

Audit of the Delegation of Financial Authorities

Financial management controls and compliance Completed Sept. 24, 2008

Follow-up Audit of the Process for Responding to Parliamentary Order Paper Questions

Follow-up audit Completed Sept. 24, 2008
Audit of Information Technology Security IT audit In progress 2009-10
Audit of Contracting Controls and Compliance Note 1 Note 1
Audit of Expenditure Management – Travel and Hospitality Controls and Compliance Note 1 Note 1


Note 1: Although these two audits were planned for completion in 2008-09, the reassignment of limited audit resources to higher audit-related priorities resulted in these audits not being initiated during the 2008-09 fiscal year. They were therefore proposed for deferral to the subsequent 2009-10 fiscal year subject to resource availability.


Table 4b: Evaluations (current reporting period)
Name of Evaluation Program Activity Program Type Status Completion Date
Evaluation of Career on the Move (COTM) Note 1 Summative Evaluation In progress 2009-10 (Q2)

Note 1: The COTM activity is managed by Corporate Services Branch (CSB). Under the 2008-09 Program Activity Architecture (PAA) structure, internal services delivered by CSB were allocated across the PCO program activities, and therefore there was no specific PAA identified for this Evaluation. Under the 2009-10 PAA structure, the Evaluation of COTM would be identified under the new Program Activity Architecture “Internal Services.”
