Exact audit opinions

The AGSA audit record.

Different outcomes in the two preserved sources

2020/21: Treasury reports outstanding; AGSA reports Qualified. Both records remain visible below.

Publication cut-offs and revisions can differ. We do not replace one source silently.

2023-24

Adverse

AGSA source

Treasury separately reports: Adverse opinion. Source labels and publication cut-offs may differ.
Source link unavailable

Audit opinions concern reporting and compliance. They do not certify service quality. Treasury opinions remain a separate source; differing labels are never silently replaced.

Creditor figures are withheld where source reliability or audit status prevents interpretation. Irregular expenditure is not automatically evidence of theft. Monetary expenditure balances are not published until their source mapping is verified.
