There have been complaints about the apparent poor quality of the audit. Are steps going to be taken to ensure that auditor pay reflects the quality and quantity of their work effort?
The Audit Commission is in the process of testing a final approach to the Quality Assurance work. These comments have been passed onto the Police Standards Unit to feed into this process. • Guidance/advice is requested on how to utilise ABC data to make management decisions/planning etc. We are aware that further guidance is required in this area. A Home Office workshop was held on the uses of ABC data and as a result, this data will be integrated into iQuanta when it is available from Summer 04. New training materials developed will also focus on this area in particular. Support from practitioners has been requested in finding practical examples to share in this training.
