Relevance to Auditors, Independent Reviewers & Accountants:
- The Property Practitioners Act is yet another piece of legislation that your clients must comply with, and which you must assess compliance with. If they don’t comply with the relevant laws and regulations, you have certain reporting obligations in terms of NOCLAR (NOn-Compliance with Laws And Regulations) – this could include reporting to management, qualifying your audit opinion, reporting a Reportable Irregularity, etc.
- As an auditor and independent reviewer, you need to consider and assess compliance with the PPA and Guidelines issued by the PPRA.
- As an accountant, you may need to advise your clients who are property practitioners on compliance with the PPA and adherence to the latest guidelines issued by the PPRA.
Relevance to Your clients:
- A property practitioner has a duty to comply with the Property Practitioners Act.
- Your clients who are property practitioners, must not only comply with the PPA, but they also have to adhere to the latest guidelines issued by the PPRA.
