Our internal audit service will commence in April 2026 and we will advise existing customers when our booking system is open.   We are currently running a recruitment campaign for new internal auditors.  Unfortunately, due to capacity of our internal audit team, SALC is unable to offer this service to councils that do not currently use our Internal Audit Service.
