EUROSAI Working Group on Environmental Auditing

The EUROSAI Working Group on Environmental Auditing (EUROSAI WGEA) was formally established by a resolution of the 4th EUROSAI Congress held in Paris, in 1999. Previously this Group had functioned as the International Organisation of Supreme Audit Institutions’ (INTOSAI) Regional European Working Group on Environmental Auditing, established in 1998 during the 16th INTOSAI Congress in Montevideo as a result of the “regionalisation” of the INTOSAI Working Group on Environmental Auditing.
