Overview

The Controller and Auditor-General (the “Auditor-General”) is an Officer of Parliament whose role is to assist Parliament in its scrutiny of executive government, and to strengthen the effectiveness, efficiency, and accountability of public sector organisations.

Under the Public Audit Act 2001, the Auditor-General is the auditor of all public entities in New Zealand. This includes government departments, central agencies, Crown entities, local authorities, schools, and State-owned enterprises. In practice, these annual audits are carried out by staff at Audit New Zealand - one of two business units operated by the Auditor-General - and by private sector auditors appointed by the Auditor-General.

Audit New Zealand currently draws on a panel of audit firms (“Supplementation Panel” or “Panel”) who provide suitably qualified audit staff, on a temporary, “as required” basis, to work alongside its staff while they are carrying out annual audit work during peak times. The contracts with all the audit firms on the current Supplementation Panel (2018 to 2021) expire on 31 December 2021. The Auditor-General, on behalf of Audit New Zealand is seeking to establish a new Panel, which will be in place for at least three (3) years from the date the Contract starts.

Audit New Zealand is also interested in receiving expressions of interest from other audit firms not currently on the Supplementation Panel, who may also be able to provide suitably qualified audit staff, on a temporary, “as required” basis.

All audit firms on the current Supplementation Panel are being offered the opportunity to express interest in joining the new Panel.

There is no minimum or maximum number of firms that can be included in the Panel.
