Audit Board The statutory task of the HUS Audit Board is to evaluate the achievement of the objectives set by the council and whether the activities have been organized in an effective and appropriate manner. In addition, the central tasks of the audit board include the organization of the HUS Group financial and administrative audit (including the auditing of accounts) and the monitoring of declarations of interest submitted by elected officials and office holders. Each year, the audit board submits an evaluation report to the council, where the results of the evaluation for the previous year are published and recommendations are made for the development of activities. In addition to the achieving of binding financial targets and strategic key objectives, the board will also evaluate other topics it considers important. Pursuant to (Section 124) the Local Government Act, the audit board has the right to receive information from the municipal authorities and to see the documents it deems necessary for the performance of the evaluation task. The audit board 's evaluation reports have been published on a new website at www.arviointikertomushus.fi.
