Purpose
At the beginning of the audit we plan and resource the audit for effective delivery by performing procedures to:
•Understand the service requirements and agree the terms of our audit
•Comply with EY’s policies for client and engagement acceptance and continuance
•Evaluate compliance with relevant ethical requirements, including independence
•Identify matters arising from these procedures that have implications for our audit
We may perform the activities (including those specific requirements of the partner in charge) described in ENGAGE 2 when we meet with management early in the audit and/or at the TPE.
