Summary
Department
There are two new recommendations for the Department of Education in this report—see page 49 and page 50.
In accordance with Section 19(4) of the Auditor General Act, we have compiled a summary of the results of school jurisdictions’ audited fiscal 2016 financial statements and management letters—see page 52.
Northland School Division No. 61
There are no new recommendations for the Northland School Division in this report. The division implemented processes to improve its financial reporting—see page 51.
In May 2017, amendments to the Northland School Division Act resulted in the Auditor General no longer being the legislated auditor for the division. The Board of Trustees of the Division may now choose the external auditor, a process consistent with all other school jurisdictions in the province.
