Internal audit reviews
Following the split of DPI, DoT received internal audit services from the Department
of Planning’s (DoP) internal audit function under a service level agreement.
The following audits were conducted by DoP towards the end of the 2009-10 financial
year and tabled at the first DoT Audit and Risk Management Committee meeting in
February 2011:
• Vic Roads confidentiality agreement 2009-10;
• Country Age Pension Fuel Card subsidy scheme;
• Leased premises; and
• Office of Road Safety grant acquittals including motorcycle graduated rider
training and licensing project, and driver awareness training.
The recommendations derived from internal audit reviews are managed and
monitored through DoT’s Audit Recommendation Management System. Progress
reporting on the status of implementation of recommendations occurs on a quarterly
basis to the Audit and Risk Management Committee.
DoT is in the process of appointing an Internal Auditor through the whole of
Government Common Use Arrangement 23706.
Other audit reviews
The Vulnerability Assessment Group conducted a “Network Vulnerability
Assessment” of DoT IT network with particular attention being given to the Transport
Executive Licensing Information System (TRELIS).
