• Example Audit Committee Self-assessment
  This self-assessment has been prepared on the basis that each audit committee member will complete it independently. The audit committee chairman would then lead discussion on the results of the questionnaire, focusing on those areas which clearly need improvement or where there is great variation in answers. Alternatively, the self assessment could be undertaken as a facilitated group activity led by the Audit Committee chairman or an external party.
