An internal audit activity (IAA) provided assurance services for an activity it was responsible for during the preceding year. As a result, which IIA Code of Ethics principle is presumed to be impaired?
Independence mainly concerns the CAE, as well as the hierarchical and functional reporting relationship of the IAA.
It seems that when these aspects (above) are not clearly specified, it is a concern of objectivity (of the IIA or of the internal audit staff).
Internal auditors are objective, whereas the internal audit activity is independent.
In this particular case, it is the activity that is objective.
