Auditor General's report 1999/2000
To the Parliament of Western Australia
WorkSafe Western Australia performance indicators for the year ended June 30, 2000
Scope
I have audited the key effectiveness and efficiency performance indicators of WorkSafe Western Australia for the year ended June 30, 2000 under the provisions of the Financial Administration and Audit Act 1985.
The Commissioner is responsible for developing and maintaining proper records and systems for preparing and presenting performance indicators. I have conducted an audit of the key performance indicators in order to express an opinion on them to the Parliament as required by the Act. No opinion is expressed on the output measures of quantity, quality, timeliness and cost.
My audit was performed in accordance with section 79 of the Act to form an opinion based on a reasonable level of assurance. The audit procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and other disclosures in the performance indicators, and assessing the relevance and appropriateness of the performance indicators in assisting users to assess the Department's performance. These procedures have been undertaken to form an opinion as to whether, in all material respects, the performance indicators are relevant and appropriate having regard to their purpose and fairly represent the indicated performance.
The audit opinion expressed below has been formed on the above basis.
Audit Opinion
In my opinion, the key effectiveness and efficiency performance indicators of WorkSafe Western Australia are relevant and appropriate for assisting users to assess the Department's performance and fairly represent the indicated performance for the year ended June 30, 2000.
