INTOSAI Task-Force on the Audit of International Institutions (TFAII)

The XVIII INTOSAI Congress in Budapest in 2004 decided to establish a Task-Force on the audit of international institutions in order to implement the INTOSAI Principles on the audit of international institutions. Rigsrevisionen, the National Audit Office of Denmark, was appointed chair.

The mandate of the Task-Force is to:

• Co-ordinate and assist in identifying international institutions that should have SAIs as their external auditors and that need to develop their auditing arrangements to be in line with best audit arrangements.
• Co-operate with concerned SAIs in promoting the approved principles to relevant international institutions and relevant authorities with the aim to change the audit arrangements.
• Promote SAIs as external auditors and assist interested SAIs in preparing for such assignments.

The work should be carried out in co-operation with the INTOSAI regions and other stakeholders, and could involve activities such as seminars for SAIs and direct contact with relevant international institutions.

The Task-Force will report to the XIX INTOSAI Congress in Mexico City in 2007. It is expected that its work will be completed by then.

There are 14 members of the Task-Force at present: Denmark, Austria, Hungary, India, Japan, Korea, Nepal, Norway, Saudi-Arabia, South Africa, Sweden, Tuvalu, United Kingdom, and Venezuela.

Any SAI who would like to join the Task-Force will be most welcome. Concerning contact information and membership of the Task-Force please contact the chairman of the Task-Force at info@rigsrevisionen.dk.
