All Victorian members working in forensic accounting are invited to attend an open meeting of the Forensics Discussion group, to be held in Melbourne on Wednesday 30 July at 6.00 pm.
The topic is APES 215 Forensic accounting services moderated session. The moderators for the session are Geoff Crawford and Terry Brooks, both from Victoria Police.
Attendees will find out more about the proposed standard APES 215 (formerly APS 11 Statement of forensic accounting standards and GN 2 Forensic accounting), which outlines the mandatory requirements and guidance for members who provide forensic accounting services.
The proposed standard will apply to members in public practice, as well as those in business. The previous standard only applied to members in public practice.
APES 215 has also been updated in accordance with recent court rulings concerning the conduct of forensic accountants and includes some mandated requirements that were previously only guidance under APS 11 and GN 2.
CPA Australia is calling for members to comment on the proposed standard by Friday 1 August.
The meeting will be held from 6.00 pm to 7.30 pm at CPA Australia, level 28, 385 Bourke Street, Melbourne. Hot and cold finger food will be provided.
Registration prior to this meeting is essential. All registrations must be received by 12.00 pm Tuesday 29 July.
