Audit Wales is the trademark of our two legal entities: the Auditor General for Wales and the Wales Audit Office.
Each has its own particular powers and duties:
- The Auditor General audits and reports on Welsh public bodies.
- The Wales Audit Office provides staff and other resources for the Auditor General’s work, and monitors and advises the Auditor General.
