This would not be the consulting engagement as it is just a request from the management to include the review in the audit plan. IA cannot agree with management that if something is not comfortable for IA then certain processes are excluded from the engagement because IA don't have specialists within the department or entire IA lack knowledge in the certain topic.

Assurance must be given regarding the containment of health and safety risk. In addition, management's expectations must be met.
