Performance Audit

The Auditor General conducts Performance Audits under Section 10A of the Public Audit Act 2007 (as amended). Performance audits examine the extent to which a government agency, ministry, or public enterprise is carrying out its activities effectively and efficiently, and in a manner consistent with the government policies to which it is required to adhere.

A performance audit may cover one or more government agencies, ministries, or public enterprises. Audits may focus on the operations of a single entity or address particular issues that span across multiple entities.

Performance audit reports are submitted separately to Parliament.

The following table outlines the performance audit reports that have been completed:
