The Board Assurance Statement and Self-Audit Checklists

  • As part of the review process, we ask boards to attest to meeting regulatory and legislative requirements.
  • Boards do this by completing the Board Assurance Statement and Self-Audit Checklists (updated in November 2024).
  • A guidance document, Guidelines for Board Assurance Statement, is provided as reference material to support boards.
