Forums for audit and risk committee chairpersons

If you chair an audit and risk committee (or equivalent) in the public sector and would like to attend these sessions, please get in touch: events@oag.parliament.nz.

These forums are online and open to audit and risk committee chairpersons in the public sector. We might, with the agreement of presenters, provide copies or recordings of presentations. The discussions are not made available publicly, to encourage free and frank sharing of challenges and solutions or approaches.

  • Water reform, consultation documents and long-term plans
  • An economic update from the Treasury
  • Governing cyber security risk
  • Climate governance
  • Asset management

  • Building meaningful and enduring relationships with iwi and hapū
