Description

The UKHSA has a public duty to account for the taxpayer funds it spends accurately and in a timely fashion.  The Agency's accounts were disclaimed in prior years as a result of failure of UKHSA to fully support its financial position. The 23-24 account was qualified as a result of failing to provide sufficient evidence to support the CVU opening balances and the NAO Audit Completion Report identifies significant reporting and control issues that UKHSA still needs to address. This contract will support the Agency in addressing those areas in preparation for the 24-25 accounts production.
