Comment deadline for BIS Discussion Paper on audit reform
The Department for Business Innovation & Skills (BIS) has issued a paper on audit reform. "Audit regulation - discussion document on the implications of the EU and wider reforms" proposes changes in the UK to implement the EU Audit Directive (‘the Directive’) and Audit Regulation (‘the Regulation’), as well as other changes that may be made to enhance confidence and strengthen the audit regime. The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) has also issued a consultation document on the same topic.
