Management Action Plan Status Update Report - April 2010

Summary

As required by the Policy on Internal Audit and in compliance with the Internal Audit Standards of Canada, internal audit is required to follow-up on past audit recommendations.  In July 2009, CNSC’s Audit Committee approved the 2009-2010 Annual Audit Plan including a follow-up of past CNSC audits. This report presents the results of our review and the status on the implementation of management action plans (MAPs) for the following audits:

  1. Audit of Contracting and Procurement, 2009
  2. Audit of Sealed Source Controls, 2009
  3. Audit of the Corporate Security Program, 2005
  4. OAG Management Letter - Fiscal year ending April 2009

The objective of the follow-up process is to determine whether staff and management are meeting commitments made in response to previous audit recommendations and whether progress in addressing them has been satisfactory.

The follow-up audit process focuses attention on significant recommendations and findings and ensures continued monitoring until they have been addressed and resolved. As such, it provides relevant information to the President and senior management in holding those responsible for corrective action to account for actions planned and taken.
