Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 181 / Monday, September 20, 2010 / Notices
proposed revisions to Government
Auditing Standards (GAGAS) (also
known as the Yellow Book). To help
ensure that the standards continue to
meet the needs of the audit community
and the public it serves, the Acting
Comptroller General of the United
States appointed the Advisory Council
on Government Auditing Standards to
review the standards and recommend
necessary changes. The Advisory
Council includes experts in financial
and performance auditing drawn from
all levels of government, private
enterprise, public accounting, and
academia. This exposure draft of the
standards includes the Advisory
Council’s suggestions for proposed
changes. We are currently requesting
public comments on the proposed
revisions in the exposure draft.
The proposed 2010 revision to
GAGAS will be the sixth revision since
the standards were first issued in 1972.
The 2010 Yellow Book exposure draft
seeks to emphasize the critical role of
high quality government audits in
achieving credibility and accountability
in government. The proposed changes
contained in the 2010 Exposure Draft
update GAGAS to reflect major
developments in the accountability and
audit profession and emphasize specific
considerations applicable to the
government environment. In addition,
this proposed revision modernizes
GAGAS, with updates to reflect major
developments in the accountability and
audit environment, including a
conceptual framework approach for
independence. Clarifications have also
been made throughout the standards.
Comments will be accepted
through November 22, 2010.
DATES:
A copy of the exposure draft
(GAO–1O–853G) can be obtained on the
GAO Internet page https://www.gao.gov/
