 Agreed. Then how it differs from management and what is the use of separately mentioning the term those charged with governance.

DEAR  AKHIL

Then how it differs from management and what is the use of separately mentioning the term those charged with governance.
 

THE TERMINOLOGY THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE IS NOT DEFINED ANYWHERE IN SA(STANDARD OF AUDITING).BUT IN  CORPORATE WORLD IT IS DEFINED AS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF GROUP OF PERSON(MAINLY THE BOARD OF DIRECTIORS,TOP LEVEL MANAGMENT) WHO ARE SUPPOSE TO SET OBJECTIVES, LAY DOWN CODE OFCONDUCT/ETHICS ,PLANNING,SUPERSIVION,WORKING ON  WEAKNESSES IN THE INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM ETC,AND  IT IS THERE RESPONSIBILITY TO COMMUNICATE ALL THESE MATTERS TO THE MANAGMENT OF THE COMPANY AND IMPLEMENT THESE GUIDELINES ,

WE HAVE ALSO STUDIED IN SA 400 RISK ASSESMENT AND INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM THAT IF THE AUDITOR FINDS ANY IRREGULARITY IN THE INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM HE IS SUPPOSE TO COMMUNICATE THE MATTER IN THE FORM OF A WRITTEN LETTER KNOWN AS LETTER OF WEAKNESS TO THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE.
