Performance Audit Reports
We publish a report for every performance audit that we complete.
Our reports outline what we found in our audit. They highlight strengths and make recommendations where there may be opportunity to improve.
Each of our reports contains:
- good practices
- our findings and recommendations
- a summary of comments and an action plan created by the local government
Each audit aims to help a specific local government. However, other local governments may be able to reference these reports to find areas for improvement within their own services.
For more of our work, read our booklets on leading practices.
