Plan pracy NIK na 2018 rok

The activity of the Supreme Audit Office is fundamentally based on annual work plans, adopted by the Council of NIK and submitted to the Lower House of the Polish Parliament (Sejm). Apart from the audits included in the work plan, NIK conducts ad hoc audits to respond to information on potential irregularities resulting, among others, from the current analysis of the social and economic situation, including complaints and motions submitted to NIK. In the NIK work plan for the year 2018, 109 audit subjects have been comprised (excluding obligatory audits, i.e. the state budget execution and the analysis of the monetary policy guidelines). Among the 109 audit subjects, in 2018 NIK will carry out four international audits: the financial audit of the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN), the financial audit of the CERN pension fund, the financial audit of the Council of Europe (CoE), as well as the audit of selected organisational aspects and performance audits in the Council of Europe. On the basis of general assumptions, the full obligatory compliance of the audits proposed to the work plan with suggested audit areas has not been provided, nevertheless as many as 88.8 percent of the issues included in the plan are related to key areas of the State’s activity. The majority of these issues are connected with public administration, environment, health, transportation, public order and public security.
