1.1 Performance audits

1.1.1 Purpose of performance audits

Each year, VAGO undertakes a broad range of performance audits, culminating in reports to Parliament that contain findings and conclusions about the economy, efficiency and effectiveness of public services, and compliance with relevant legislation. These audits offer independent assurance to Parliament and the community about public sector performance. Performance audits may also identify better practice and are a catalyst for continuous improvement in the public sector.
