Forensic Audits 2018

This volume includes the results of three forensic audits. Two stem from Special Audit requests (Pharmacare and Thompson District Office) and one from our citizen concern line (RM of De Salaberry).

In the audit, Pharmacare: Special Audit of Financial Irregularities and Controls, we determined an employee processed many suspicious payments over several years totaling more than $236,000. We recommended our findings be forwarded to Civil Legal Services.

In the audit, Thompson District Office: Special Audit of Missing Licences and Cash Management Practices, we found a number of irregularities that suggest funds were being misappropriated.

In the audit, Rural Municipality of De Salaberry: Audit of Financial Irregularities, we audited five financial allegations we received, and expanded our audit to include assessing internal controls over council member expense claims. We concluded two of the allegations were substantiated, and found opportunities to strengthen the clams processing system.
