CONTRACTS LET IN EXCESS OF $100 000 THAT DO NOT PROVIDE THE AUDITOR-GENERAL WITH ACCESS TO CONTRACTOR'S PREMISES

There are, however, a limited number of circumstances where, due to supplier insistence, specific industry-based standard contracts have been used in preference to the department's standard contract templates. It remains the department's preference that contracts include the ANAO clause.
In the cases shown below, departmental standard contracts were not used:
