The Internal Audit Section
The Internal Audit Section within the Director General’s Division conducts systematic, and independent audits and examination of the systems of all divisions of the Directorate to determine the adequacy of controls, reliability of information, and security of RD assets. The Section provides an objective assurance and consulting service designed to add value and improve the Directorate’s performance and overall governance processes.
The audits can assist heads of divisions in improving their operations by identifying areas that are vulnerable to abuse or inefficiency, ensuring that policies and procedures are followed, and that their operations are adhering to national laws.
The Internal Audit Section also provides reports to the DG, Executive as well as to the Board’s Audit and Risk Sub-Committee concerning the results of reviews of financial reporting, compliance with laws, regulations, policies, procedures, and internal controls.
