Strategy and Work Program

The audit work of the AGO is driven by a strategic Audit Plan prepared independently by the AGO and endorsed by the Parliament. Generally it covers all Ministries, Departments, Government companies and ventures, President’s Office, President’s Palace, Police, Parliament, Courts of law, funds provided to political parties, High commissions and embassies, Atoll offices, schools, hospitals, special projects, statutory authorities and independent institutions.

The Strategic Audit Plan is prepared based on the legislative mandate of AGO, public feedback, understanding of client operations, new developments in the economy and pending matters and includes Financial Audits, Performance Audits, Governance and compliance Audits and Special Audits

Professional audit staff are divided into 11 audit teams headed by a team leader and as such there would be 11 audits in progress at any given point in time. All reports of AGO will be uploaded to AGO’s website after they are sent to the auditee and the Parliament.
