HIGHLIGHTS

A summary of the highlights for 2006–07 is set out below.

  •  A comprehensive program of financial and performance audits and related products was delivered to inform the Parliament and the Government about public sector administration and performance.
  • We issued 242 audit opinions of which 87 per cent were issued within two days of signing the financial statements, a reflection of the efficiency of our working relationships.
  • We made 192 recommendations in our performance audit reports directed at improving agency performance and accountability. These recommendations were well received overall, with 99 per cent agreed or agreed with qualification.
  • We continued to work closely with Parliamentary committees, particularly the Joint Committee of Public Accounts and Audit, and have assisted them with their inquiries.
  • Our client surveys again provided very positive feedback on our audit services.
  • As well as hosting visitors from many countries as part of our commitment to assisting with the development of public sector auditing internationally, this year we provided particular assistance to the audit institutions of Papua New Guinea and Indonesia.
  • We met 15 of 19 operational targets1 in our Portfolio Budget Statements 2006–07, and all action items from our Business Plan 2006–07 were either completed or are ongoing activities.
  • A new Corporate Plan was developed for the next three years.
  • A ten year lease was secured for head office accommodation at our present address when our current lease expires in September 2008.
  • We were recognised for excellence in recycling by the Australian Capital Territory Government “No Waste” awards.
