Public Accounts and Other Financial Statements 2019

We provide brief summaries of each financial statement audit we do directly and those where we use an agent to conduct the work on our behalf. In each summary, we identify the areas of audit significance and note whether we issued a “qualified” or “unqualified” audit opinion.

We also report on other matters for the Legislative Assembly’s attention arising from our financial statement audits.
