Auditor Guidelines

Consultation period: 4 July 2008 to 25 July 2008 5:00pm

About this Consultation

The new reconciliation rules (part J) and the revised part E came into effect on 1 May 2008. There are requirements within these rules for reconciliation participants and distributors to obtain an annual audit by an Electricity Commission Board (Board) approved auditor. The purpose of the audit is to show compliance with the requirements within the Electricity Governance Rules 2003 and amendments. These audits are to be submitted to the Board for approval, and audit summaries for each audit will be published on the Commission's website. The Commission has produced audit guidelines for auditors to follow when carrying out these audits.

Consultation was carried out on revised guidelines in September 2007. The Guidelines have subsequently been amended, and given the extent of the changes made, the Commission has decided to call for another round of consultation.
