Audit Clarity Project

The Clarity Project involved the International Auditing & Assurance Standards Board (IAASB) reviewing and reissuing all its standards to improve the clarity of wording and make their application more consistent. Subsequently the Australian Auditing & Assurance Standards Board (AUASB) has adopted this work and reviewed all existing ASAs. The complete new set of revised ASAs was issued and became legally binding in October 2009.
