Draft report

How a draft internal audit report is compiled, what it will contain and next steps.

Following a series of quality assurance procedures, we will compile a draft discussion report.

We will discuss this with the audit sponsor and other key contacts to make sure everything is clearly understood and to check that the suggested actions are feasible.

A formal draft report will then be circulated to key contacts agreed with the sponsor for a final review. The report will typically provide an overall assurance opinion (Good, Satisfactory, Limited or No) and graded actions (Critical, Major, Moderate or Low).

Your service is required to provide action owners and implementation dates within 10 working days of the draft report being issued.
