Structure
The Chief Internal Auditor reports functionally to the Internal Audit Committee and administratively to the Deputy Minister, Treasury Board.
The functional reporting line provides for the Chief Internal Auditor’s independence and authority through the Internal Audit Committee’s review of the Corporate Internal Audit Services Charter and audit plans. This reporting relationship provides for the Internal Audit Committee’s monitoring of the government’s risk management, control and governance systems through the work of Corporate Internal Audit Services.
The division is organized into two branches: Internal Audit Operations and Internal Audit Practice.
The Internal Audit Practice Branch is responsible for the professional practice, including quality assurance reviews, technical training plans and development of annual and long-range audit plans.
The Internal Audit Operations Branch is responsible for execution of the annual audit plan, individual training plans and project quality per Institute of Internal Auditor standards.
The two branches work closely together to achieve the division’s objectives.
