Overview
The Internal Audit Unit (IAU) is established within the Ministry of Sport and Youth Affairs in accordance with the Financial Regulations under the Exchequer and Audit Act, Chapter 69:01, Section 13(4), which requires that each Accounting Unit have an independent Internal Audit section.
Our Unit operates within a legislative and governance framework that includes the Constitution of Trinidad and Tobago, the Exchequer and Audit Act, Financial Regulations and Instructions, and Circulars issued by the Treasury and Comptroller of Accounts.
Internal auditing is an independent and objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve operations by evaluating risk management, control, and governance processes. Our role is to support the Accounting Officer in fulfilling statutory responsibilities for the control, management, and accountability of public funds and resources.
