Statement of Assurance

In my professional judgment as Executive Director, Operational Auditing, sufficient and appropriate procedures and evidence gathering were performed to support the accuracy of the audit conclusion. The audit findings and conclusion are based on a comparison of the conditions that existed as of September 3, 2009, in the departments reviewed, against pre‑established audit criteria. Further, the evidence was gathered in accordance with the Internal Auditing Standards for the Government of Canada and the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing.[1]
