Campaigning for internal control

Article Abstract:

The Institute of Internal Auditors-United Kingdom accused the Cadbury Committee on the Financial Aspects of Corporate Governance report of omitting to stress the importance of internal control. Directors, managers and external auditors should be actively involved in coporate life by company law. Internal audit aids non-executives' decision-making and assessment of how employees comply with required standards. The international institute has 40,000 members, half of them in the public sector.

The latter company has become known for undercutting practices, but this is the first time that the issue has been made public in this way.
