Annual Report of Findings 2022

Background

This report summarises the C&AG findings from her reports and Thinkpiece issued in 2022.

Scope

This is a summary report.

Conclusions

Independent external audit is an important part of the process of accountability for the use of public money.  It provides assurance on the management of public funds and on corporate governance.  The role of independent audit is even more important in these extraordinary times as we see huge pressures on public services as well as high levels of risk and uncertainty.

While the States of Jersey have implemented many C&AG recommendations during 2022 there remains a significant number of recommendations that have not yet been implemented fully.   As a consequence, recognised opportunities for better and more effective delivery of services and use of public money are yet to be realised.
