Set in the beautiful Kingdom of Tonga—renowned for its warm hospitality, stunning coastlines, and rich Pacific heritage—the PASAI Cooperative Compliance Audit Program brings together seven (7) regional Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) to strengthen collaboration and build capacity across the region. This cooperative compliance audit, focusing on payroll, follows a structured approach with clear timelines from planning to reporting, in compliance with ISSAI principles (ISSAI 400) and ISSAI standards (ISSAI 4000). The program provides participating auditors with practical experience in a high-risk audit area, enhancing their technical competencies while promoting shared learning through the exchange of knowledge and experiences among SAIs. Overall, the initiative delivers strong regional value by fostering consistency in audit practices, strengthening professional networks, and improving public sector accountability. We sincerely appreciate the opportunity for SAI Vanuatu to be part of this important initiative, contributing to and learning alongside our audit colleagues
PASAI Cooperative Compliance Audit on Payroll took place in Tonga from dates 25th - 29th June 2026. Auditor Staff who attended training were Kalvin Amos, Daniella Malsetts and Marinette Charley.
