Auditor-General's Report on the Annual Financial Report of the State of Victoria, 2012–13 |
This Part presents the results of our review of the procurement practices and financial policies and delegations in the technical and further education (TAFE) sector.
Overall we found that documented policies and clear financial delegations had been established across the TAFE sector. Controls over procurement were generally adequate, but improvements could still be made in documenting the key integrity activities that underpin a tender process.
To be financially sustainable, entities need to be able to meet current and future expenditure as it falls due. They also need to absorb foreseeable changes and risks, and adapt their revenue and expenditure policies to address changes in their operating environment. This Part provides an insight into the financial sustainability of technical and further education (TAFE) institutes based on an analysis of the trends in their key financial indicators over the past five years.
This Part analyses the financial results of the 14 technical and further education (TAFE) institutes for the year ended 31 December 2013.
This Part covers the results of the 2013 audits of performance statements for the 14 technical and further education (TAFE) institutes, four dual-sector universities and one associated entity that are required to include an audited statement of performance in their annual report.
This Part covers the results from the 2013 audits of the 14 technical and further education (TAFE) institutes and the 13 entities they control.
