The objective of this audit was to assess the efficiency and effectiveness of the Commonwealth's management of the Great Barrier Reef as implemented by the Authority. This audit was undertaken because of the environmental significance of the Great Barrier Reef Region; its growing economic importance; recent changes to the Authority's budget arrangements; and because the Authority had not been subject to a performance audit since its establishment approximately 20 years ago.
The objectives of the audit were to:
- assist OGIT in the timely identification and correction of any deficiencies in the evaluation process;
- provide advice to the Parliament, the Government and other interested parties on the probity of the evaluation process; and
- test for adherence to legislative and other specified requirements, such as in industry development.
The main objectives of the audit were to examine and form an opinion on:
- the efficiency, economy and administrative effectiveness with which the Commonwealth planned and coordinated implementation of the gun buy-back scheme;
- the management of firearms surrender and destruction in the Australian Capital Territory by the Australian Federal Police; and
- the management of the competitive tendering process for the national public education campaign.
Audit criteria were developed which examined program policy and planning, coordination with and payment of funds to the States.
