The PSC has an established internal audit function, working within an environment bounded by professional standards and TBS policies. The function also receives guidance and input from its independent Internal Audit Committee. The PSC posts all completed audits on its Web site.
The table below gives the status of audits planned for 2012-2013 and those not yet complete. It also shows the outlook for audits to be completed over the next three years. We reassess risks annually as part of our audit planning process. Consequently, the outlook may be revised to reflect changes to overall risks, controls and commitments over this time frame.

The PSC has an established evaluation function governed by professional standards and TBS policies. The function also receives guidance and input from its departmental Evaluation Committee.
The rolling PSC 5-Year Evaluation Plan is updated annually. It takes into consideration emerging issues and priorities and shows progress towards increased evaluation coverage. Upon approval, the 5-Year Evaluation Plan 2012-2017 will be strategically integrated into the organization’s overall management activities and will support decision-making with the generation of timely, strategically focussed, objective and evidence-based information on the performance of PSC’s policies, programs and initiatives as an organization.
The table below gives the status of frameworks and evaluations planned for 2012-2013 and for the following two years. We reassess risks and priorities annually as part of our evaluation planning process. Consequently, activities planned for the 2013-2015 period may be revised to reflect changes in priority and resources level.
The PSC posts its 5-Year Evaluation Plan and all completed evaluation reports on its Web site.
