Table 6: Upcoming Internal Audits (Next three fiscal years)

Audit and Advisory Services developed an audit plan for 2008-2009 to 2010-2011, which was approved by the departmental Audit and Review Committee in May 2008. The audit plan is reviewed yearly, which may result in revisions, updates or changes as required or requested by the Audit and Review Committee. 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 and 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.
