The Internal Audit work of my Department conforms to the standards of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform’s Audit Standards and to the Standards and Ethics of the Institute of Internal Auditors.

Internal audit reports are regularly subject to Freedom of Information (FOI) requests. Internal audit reports which have been released under FOI are regarded as being in the public domain and can be issued to a subsequent enquirer on request, without the need to use FOI.

I hope this clarifies the matter for the Deputy.
