The lack of communication of material facts in an engagement report relates to objectivity. An omission influenced by someone else is a breach to objectivity. Intentional omission is clearly a breach to integrity (honesty), as well as behaviors that are dishonorable to the profession. Failure to disclose facts required by law or the profession of IAA relates to integrity. Unintentional omission means that there is a lack of diligence or even responsibility (integrity).
