Auditor General's External Quality Assurance Review |
Committee Decision |
The Audit Committee received for information, the report (April 2, 2009) from the Auditor General. |
Origin |
(April 2, 2009) Report from the Auditor General |
Summary |
Government auditing standards require that audit organizations performing audits in accordance with Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards (GAGAS) undergo an external quality assurance review every three years. This report provides the results of the Auditor General’s External Quality Assurance Review. This is the second such review for the Auditor General’s Office. The Auditor General received an “unqualified opinion” for this review. An “unqualified opinion” is the highest rating possible and indicates that audit work is conducted in accordance with Generally Accepted Government Auditing Standards. The process also provides the opportunity for reviewers to offer observations related to audit organization practices that are particularly noteworthy as well as suggestions related to professional industry best practices. |

Review of Disposal of Surplus IT Equipment - Security, Environmental and Financial Risks |
Committee Recommendations |
The Audit Committee recommends that:
1. City Council request the Chief Information Officer to re-evaluate the agreement with the vendor who is currently providing information technology asset disposal services. Such re-evaluation take into account the experience of the vendor particularly in the area of data security and environmental concerns and where appropriate ensure that the vendor is capable of providing the level of service required.
2. City Council request the Chief Information Officer to review all provisions in the agreement with the third party information technology asset disposal vendor and direct the vendor to comply with all provisions in the agreement. Further policies, procedures be established to ensure that the City is able to confirm compliance. Regular audits including the development of audit programmes be conducted to confirm compliance. Documentary evidence of all such compliance audits be retained and approved by supervisory staff.
3. City Council request the Chief Information Officer, on a random basis, to confirm that hard drives submitted to the auctioneer have been successfully erased. Specialized data recovery tools be used to determine whether or not hard drives have been successfully deleted.
4. City Council request the Chief Information Officer to ensure that disposal processes for surplus information technology assets are in conformance with regulatory procedures and all such disposals are supported by an adequate audit trail for subsequent verification by City staff.
5. City Council request the Chief Information Officer to ensure that receipts from the sale of equipment are reconciled to the actual equipment sold. |
Origin |
(May 4, 2009) Report from the Auditor General |
Summary |
The objective of this review was to determine whether the City’s management and oversight of the disposal of surplus Information Technology (IT) equipment adequately addresses potential risks such as:
- ensuring information residing on computer equipment such as hard drives is effectively erased or destroyed - ensuring that surplus equipment is disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner, and - ensuring the City receives its share of the funds from the disposal of the assets.
The review identified the need to address a number of important areas relating to contract compliance. The City needs to address these issues in order to mitigate the risks pertaining to the inappropriate disposal of surplus IT assets. There is also a need to ensure that the qualifications of the current third party vendor are re-evaluated.
Although recommendations in this report focus on improving controls over the disposal of surplus IT equipment at the City the recommendations may be relevant to the City’s Agencies, Boards, Commissions and Corporations and should be reviewed, evaluated and implemented as deemed appropriate. |

Process for Non-Competitive Procurement (Sole Sourcing) Needs Improvement |
Committee Recommendations |
The Audit Committee recommends that:
1. City Council request the Treasurer to report annually to Government Management Committee a summary of all sole source purchases including divisional purchase orders, as well as sole source purchases reported to the Standing Committees and Council.
2. City Council request the Treasurer to require that staff in the Purchasing and Materials Management Division report significant inappropriate sole source activity to senior divisional staff in order to address performance and training issues of divisional staff.
3. City Council request the Treasurer to require that the reasons for all sole source purchases, including those purchases approved in Standing Committee and Council reports, are recorded in the financial information system on a consistent basis.
4. City Council request the Treasurer to ensure policies and procedures to control and monitor the new $50,000 limit on divisional purchase orders are finalized and issued to divisional staff as soon as possible. Such procedures should address the justification and documentation requirements for sole source purchases.
5. City Council request the Treasurer to ensure that sole source procedures clearly state that solicitation of informal bids is not permitted. Similarly, for non emergency situations, vendors should not start work before purchase orders are approved and wherever possible, the first phase of multi-phased projects should undergo a competitive procurement process.
6. City Council request the Treasurer to re-emphasize to divisional management the importance of identifying procurement requirements and ensure that this information is communicated to the Purchasing and Materials Management Division and City Legal on a timely basis. This process would allow for sufficient lead time, such that both the Purchasing and Materials Management Division and City Legal can schedule their respective resources to meet divisional timelines.
7. City Council request the Treasurer to develop and communicate guidelines to assist divisional staff in identifying contractual relationships where the potential exists that the contractor could be deemed an employee by the Canada Revenue Agency.
8. City Council request the City Manager to direct City divisions to report back to the Treasurer on any consulting/contractor arrangements that may pose a significant risk of being deemed City employees by the Canada Revenue Agency. |
Decision Advice and Other Information |
The Audit Committee requested:
1. the Treasurer to report to the Audit Committee:
a. within three months, with a list of all sole source contracts which were awarded for amounts up to $500,000.00 during the period from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2008, such list to include the names of awardees, dates, amounts and reasons for the sole source awards; and
b. annually thereafter, on amounts awarded through sole source contracts.
2. the Deputy City Manager and Chief Financial Officer to report to the Audit Committee on the advisability of requesting the City's agencies, boards and commissions to include information on sole source contracts as part of their annual reports. |
Origin |
(May 22, 2009) Report from the Auditor General |
Summary |
The objective of this review was to determine whether sole source contracts complied with the City’s Municipal Code and purchasing policies and procedures.
Our review identified opportunities for improvement in reporting and processing sole source purchases. Our recommendations will improve the current sole source procurement process and will assist management in minimizing non-competitive procurement.
A management response to each of the recommendations is attached to this report. |

(January 23, 2009) Report from the Auditor General |
Summary |
The objective of this review was to assess the extent to which the Parks, Forestry and Recreation Division manages its capital program with due regard to economy, efficiency and effectiveness, from a broad high level perspective.
Our review identified a number of issues areas relating to the growing state of good repair backlog and management of the capital program.

(June 1, 2009) Report from the Auditor General |
Summary |
This report provides information regarding the implementation status of audit recommendations contained in various reports issued by the Auditor General to City divisions. The report is the fourth such annual report issued by the Auditor General related to follow-up on management efforts to implement outstanding recommendations.
Management has made significant progress on implementing outstanding audit recommendations. Further, we noted that management continues to make progress on many recommendations not yet fully implemented.
Since January 1, 1999 the Auditor General has issued various reports containing a total of 1,012 recommendations. Since that time 125 of these recommendations have been identified by the Auditor General as no longer relevant. These recommendations are no longer relevant because of changes such as re-organization, modification, reduction or termination of the service provided by the affected division. Consequently, of the 1,012 recommendations made, 887 continue to have relevance.
The results of our review indicate management has fully implemented 790 or 89 per cent of the recommendations made by the Auditor General from January 1, 1999 to June 30, 2008.
Continued efforts to implement outstanding recommendations will provide additional benefit to the City through cost savings, additional revenue and enhanced service delivery. |

Policy Changes Required to Direct Fraud Recoveries to a Reserve |
Committee Decision |
The Audit Committee received for information, the report (June 2, 2009) from the City Manager. |
Origin |
(June 2, 2009) Report from the City Manager |
Summary |
This report responds to a request from the Audit Committee to identify policy changes that would be required to allow recoveries made as a result of investigations by the Auditor General to be allocated to a general reserve fund, instead of being returned to the subject division where the losses occurred. Staff’s position is that recovered funds should continue to be allocated to the accounts from which the funding was originally obtained or to the Non-Program account in cases where operating funds are recovered in future years. This is consistent with the conclusion of a prior report on this matter that was considered by Audit Committee in November, 2007. |
