This is achieved through the Quality Audit Review Committee, which monitors the quality of audit products, and provides the Auditor-General with reasonable assurance the Audit Office complies with the requirements of <a href="https://www.auasb.gov.au/standards-guidance/auasb-standards/auditing-standards/">ASQM 1 Quality Management for Firms that Perform Audits or Reviews of Financial Reports and Other Financial Information, or Other Assurance or Related Service Engagements</a>, and <a href="https://apesb.org.au/standards-guidance/">APES 320 Quality Management for Firms that provide Non-Assurance Services</a>.</p><p>Quality assurance mechanisms that currently provide assurance over the quality of our work include:</p><p>•    Audit and Risk Committee<br>•    Technical Issues Committee<br>•    Internal audit function<br>•    External audit function<br>•    Management control questionnaire<br>•    Quality Audit Review Committee, and quality assurance reviews <br>•
