A new report by British Columbia’s auditor general says almost half of the government’s ministries have been affected by some type of fraud between 2021 and 2022, most commonly theft.
Michael Pickup says his results suggest not all ministries are following the same approach for managing risk or they don’t have a full understanding of the government-wide framework for managing fraud.
