They are also responsible for reporting whether recurrent and specific grants from HEFCE (and other bodies and restricted funds where appropriate) have been properly applied for the purposes provided, and in accordance with the University’s financial memorandum with HEFCE. The key elements of the service are contained in the tender documents. The audit will comprise an interim audit and a final audit.
