FAC accepted this audit on June 7, 2022 — management decision was due December 7, 2022.
There is a lack of proper segregation of duties between the functions of record keeping, asset custody and authorization. Context: Due to the limited number of office personnel within the Organization, segregation of the accounting functions necessary to ensure adequate internal accounting control is not possible. This is not unusual in operations the size of Organization; however, the Organization?s management should constantly be aware of this condition and realize that the concentration of duties and responsibilities in a limited number of individuals is not desirable from an accounting point of view. Effect: Inadequate segregation of duties could adversely affect the Organization?s ability to detect misstatements in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements in a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. Cause: When accounting staff left the Organization, the Organization experienced hiring difficulties in order to maintain a proper segregation of duties. Recommendation: We recommend that the Organization?s board and management be aware of the lack of segregation of duties of the accounting functions and, where possible, implement oversight procedures to ensure that the internal control policies and procedures are being implemented by staff to the extent possible. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: The Organization will continue to segregate duties whenever possible and implement oversight procedures to ensure that the internal control policies and procedures are being implemented by staff to the extent possible.

Management concurred with the finding and is in the process of implementing actions to address the issue identified. CVAF is actively recruiting for an Accounts Specialist position, which will allow for appropriate segregation of duty. Through several postings and interviews, we have not identified a suitable candidate. At this time, we will contract with a temp agency, Resolute HR to assist in our recruiting and hiring efforts. We anticipate having this position filled within 30 days.
