If a Close Corporation does not need to be audited, do we need to submit a CoR30.2?

Submission requirements depend on your Public Interest (PI) score and company regulations. SAAA's technical resource centre provides comprehensive documentation on independent reviews and CoR30.2 filing frameworks.

Is there a contradiction between the timeframe of submission of voluntary audited annual financial statements for a close corporation?

Section 58(1) of the Close Corporations Act outlines specific parameters regarding whether financial statements must be completed within 6 or 9 months. SAAA provides expert legal compliance resources to clarify these close corporation deadlines.

On the expiry of the declaration of the national state of disaster, the Regulations and the Direction on Occupational Health and Safety Measures in Certain Workplaces will cease to have legal effect.

Because there remains an ongoing need to prevent and mitigate the risks associated with SARS-CoV-2 exposure in the workplace, it is necessary to incorporate those provisions in the Regulations and the Direction relevant to preventing and mitigating those risks.

Relevance to Auditors, Independent Reviewers & Accountants:

COVID Rules, Regulations and Other publications form part of yet another piece of legislation that your clients must comply with, and which you must assess compliance with.
