Internal Auditing is an independent, objective assurance and consulting activity designed to add value and improve the Centre’s operations. It helps the organisation to accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes through independent reviews of the Centre’s operations, activities, policies and procedures and where warranted, recommending cost-effective control and solutions for improvements in systems, processes and operations.

The department strives to meet and exceed the Board, Executive Management and other Stakeholders assurance expectations within SIRDC governance framework and in accordance with the Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing. In the discharge of our duties, we apply and uphold the principles of the internal auditors’ code of ethics, which are: integrity, objectivity, confidentiality and competency.
