Audit report, Canadian Intellectual Property Office's financial management governance / Audit and Evaluation Branch. : Iu4-179/2013E-PDF
"The Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO), a Special Operating Agency of Industry Canada, administers Canada’s system of Intellectual Property (IP) rights comprising patents, trade-marks, copyrights, industrial designs and integrated circuit topographies. CIPO’s primary clients include: applicants for IP protection, agents representing applicants, users of IP systems and the Canadian business community. CIPO partners with provincial research councils, universities and other federal government agencies to build awareness of its products and services and increase the effective use of IP by Canadians. In accordance with the Industry Canada 2012-15 Multi-Year Risk-Based Audit Plan, the Audit and Evaluation Branch (AEB) undertook an audit of CIPO financial management governance. The objective of this audit was to determine if the CIPO Financial Management Governance Framework is adequate. The audit focused on the mechanisms in place at CIPO such as the governance structure enabling compliance with legislative requirements, TB and IC policies, directives and standards. The audit revealed that, with some exceptions, CIPO has an adequate financial management governance framework in place that is operating as expected with no material weaknesses”--Executive summary.
