EU Statutory Audit Directive (Directive 2006/43/EC) A24a-b: Internal organisation: engagement policies, internal quality control system, continuity, incidents, remuneration and annual monitoring

What does A24a-b require?

The auditor or firm also keeps policies on how audits are performed, how staff are coached, supervised and reviewed, and how the audit file is organised; an internal quality control system covering at least those policies, with responsibility in a firm resting on a qualified statutory auditor; systems, resources and procedures ensuring continuity and regularity of audit activities; arrangements for dealing with and recording incidents with serious consequences for the integrity of audit activities; remuneration and profit-sharing policies that give sufficient incentives for audit quality and that exclude revenue from non-audit services to an audited entity from the performance evaluation and pay of anyone involved in or able to influence that audit; and monitoring and evaluation of the adequacy of these systems, with an annual evaluation of the internal quality control system, records of findings and proposed changes, and corrective measures. The policies are documented and communicated to employees.
