What are internal inspectors/auditors looking for?

November 3, 2023

Primarily compliance with Commission policies and sound internal controls. M-NCPPC’s policies are designed to help ensure we all comply with applicable laws and regulations and operate efficiently. By following these policies, we help protect the Commission from unnecessary risks and help ensure sound business practices are consistent throughout the Commission.

 However, not all internal controls can be codified in policy. If we find control weaknesses, we regularly make recommendations to implement a control even though it may not be specifically required by policy.
