12a - Auditor General’s Response to External Audit of the City’s Auditor General’s Office

Origin
(May 31, 2007) Report from the Auditor General
Summary
The report dated May 25, 2007 submitted by the accounting firm of Hilborn Ellis Grant LLP outlines the scope of the work conducted in connection with the external audit of the Auditor General’s compliance with corporate policies.

In reviewing the Auditor General’s compliance with these policies Hilborn Ellis Grant LLP found that the Auditor General was in compliance with all policies except the one relating to “Long Distance charges”.

The Auditor General’s Office has implemented its own internal procedures which in our view mitigate any risk in relation to the reimbursement of personal long distance charges.
