The revised Ethical Standard for Auditors effective from 15th July 2021, includes a new requirement for audit firms to make reports of breaches of the Ethical Standard to the relevant competent authority and now explicitly prescribes reporting of breaches to those charged with governance.
A Technical Release has issued, Reporting Breaches of Ethical Standard for Auditors (Ireland) 2020, to alert members to these new requirements and to provide an example of the report that may be submitted to the Recognised Accountancy Body and IAASA.
