function within the organization whereas the statutory auditor has a statutory responsibility
to express an independent opinion on the financial statements. The internal audit will be

which is consistent with this guideline. The internal audit should possess a knowledge of the
aims of the Corporation and the internal control system and aware of the relevant applicable
