Part 4– Eligibility and Regulation of Local Auditors

Paragraph 11: Enforcement: general

58.This paragraph specifies modifications that reflect the arrangements for recognising appropriate qualifications for local audit. In the Companies Act 2006, Schedule 11 sets the framework and this is not applied in this Act. Instead, regulations made under the modified section 1219 of the Companies Act 2006 are to set the requirements for the recognition of appropriate qualifications.
