Performance and Compliance Audits in Progress

 

Review of digital projects and initiatives

Information on the status and outcomes of public sector digital initiatives is often difficult to obtain. This lack of transparency means that it is difficult to determine whether digital investments have enhanced Government services or addressed the problems they were meant to resolve, and whether public resources have been spent in an efficient and effective manner.

This audit is underway.

 

Oral Health Services

The objective of this audit will be to express an opinion on whether access to public oral health services, including early intervention and prevention, is efficient and effective.

The audit will assess whether Oral Health Services Tasmania has arrangements in place that efficiently and effectively facilitate access to public oral health services. The focus on access is broader than waiting for treatment, it also includes community education on good oral health and access to preventative care.

This audit is underway.
