A MORE ORGANISED NATIONAL AUDIT INSTITUTION IN RESPECT OF THE STRUCTURE AND AUDIT SCOPE COULD BE TRACED BACK TO 1906 WHEN THE AUDITOR GENERAL OF THE FEDERATED MALAY STATES, W.J.P HUME WAS APPOINTED. FOR THE STRAITS SETTLEMENTS, EVEN THOUGH THE AUDIT INSTITUTION HAS BEEN TRACED AS EARLY AS THE END OF THE 19TH CENTURY, IT WAS CENTRED IN SINGAPORE AND ONLY INVOLVED TWO MALAYAN STATES NAMELY, PENANG AND MALACCA. BOTH THE INSTITUTIONS WERE MERGED IN THE YEAR 1932 AND PLACED UNDER THE DIRECTOR OF COLONIAL AUDIT CENTRALISED IN LONDON. AUDITINGAND THE PREPARATION OF THE AUDIT REPORT WERE CARRIED OUT BY THE AUDITOR OF THE STRAITS SETTLEMENTS AND THE FEDERATED MALAY STATES IN KUALA LUMPUR. WHEN THE FEDERATION OF MALAYA ATTAINED ITS INDEPENDENCE IN 1957, THE POST OF DIRECTOR OF AUDI MALAYA WAS CHANGED TO THE AUDITOR GENERAL. THE APPOINTMENT AS WELL AS THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL ARE SPELT OUT UNDER ARTICLE 105 OF THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION AND THE AUDIT ACT 1957.
