The statement "conducted in conformance with the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing" in audit reports can be used by the internal audit activity only if the results of a quality assurance and improvement program (QAIP) confirm that the internal audit activity adheres to the IIA Standards and there are no material issues. The QAIP includes both internal and external assessments to ensure that the internal audit activity maintains the required level of quality and effectiveness in its operations. Positive results from these assessments validate the use of the conformance statement in audit reports.
