Media release: Auditor-General - More to do to support Whānau Ora

Our intentions: Looking at how the Ministry of Education uses information to address inequities in education
9 February 2023: We’re carrying out a performance audit that will look at how the Ministry of Education uses information to understand and address inequities in education.
Update on audit timelines
31 January 2023: We completed most 30 June 2022 audits with a statutory time frame of 30 September 2022 on time, including the audit of the Financial Statements of the Government. However, auditor shortages, challenging immigration settings, staff turnover, and higher sick leave (in audit firms and in public organisations) continue to affect some public sector audits with later statutory time frames.
