Monitoring

Principle 17 - Evaluate Issues and Remediate Deficiencies

Attribute 17.03 - Personnel may identify internal control issues while performing their assigned internal control responsibilities. Personnel communicate these issues internally to the person in the key role responsible for the internal control or associated process and, when appropriate, to at least one level of management above that individual. Depending on the nature of the issues, personnel may consider reporting certain issues to the oversight body or an established hotline. Such issues may include

• issues that cut across the organizational structure or extend outside the entity to service organizations, contractors, or suppliers and
• issues that may not be remediated because of the interests of management, such as sensitive information regarding fraud or other illegal acts.
