The draft Compliance programmes Standard is a modified adoption of the Australian Standard, AS 3806:2006.  The adopted Standard will be known as NZS/AS 3806:2006 Compliance programmes.  It will be of particular interest to accountants, organisations concerned with public record keeping, the legal profession, advisors, those responsible for investigating and certifying compliance, and managers in public and private organisations.

The Standard provides principles for the development, implementation, and maintenance of effective compliance programmes, within public and private organisations.  These principles help organisations identify and remedy deficiencies in their compliance with laws, regulations, and codes; and develop processes for continual improvement in this area. 

By adopting this Australian Standard it is intended that New Zealand users will have:

  • standardised guidance on the principles for developing, implementing, and maintaining effective compliance programmes
  • harmonisation with the compliance methods used by Australian organisations.
