Is it Treasury Board policy that departmental internal audit plans be made accessible to the public?
No. The Treasury Board Policy on Internal Audit requires that completed internal audit reports be made available to the public with minimal formality but this requirement does not extend to departmental internal audit plans. These may, of course, be accessible through ATIP. The Internal Audit Policy does require deputy heads to ensure that the Treasury Board Secretariat is provided with copies of annual internal audit plans that describe internal audit activities as approved by the departmental audit committee.
