The NSW Treasury released the new Internal Audit and Risk Management Policy for the General Government Sector (TPP 20-08) in December 2020. This policy builds on and updates previous policy guidance and is well aligned with better practice standards and frameworks.
RSM Australia has a long history of providing assurance and advisory services to the public sector. We work closely with many NSW government agencies and local government in implementing the requirements of TPP 20-08. It has been pleasing to see a renewed focus on promoting a positive risk culture and the important roles played by internal audit and Audit and Risk Committees. We have also built our capability and supported many agencies through emerging risks such as cyber security and Environment, Social and Governance (or ESG) considerations.
