Welcome to the July edition of CPA Ireland’s Practice Plus. This month we issued CPA practitioners with digital practising certificates for the first time. We hope practitioners find them to be beneficial and we encourage the adoption of this new opportunity to digitally display authorisations.
The CRO Stakeholders Forum provides an opportunity to raise issues with CRO, the June Forum minutes are now available, and they explore topics such as enforcement and the newly launched PPS number requirement for directors.
We also highlight developments in Ireland’s transposition of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and CCAB-I’s pre-budget submission 2024.
