In taking up his new role, Martin said:
“I am very excited with what is happening within the Audit Office. With its new Vision, Purpose and Values Statement, I can see that there is a vibrancy and appetite to make a difference, to make an impact, in the public sector. There is a fresh confidence in the Office and a longstanding desire to deliver for the taxpayer.
In my new role I have an opportunity to share my experience and harness this energy . I am impressed with what I have seen to date – the values, which embrace partnership, curiosity, courage, and upholding the highest professional and ethical standards promotes the right message for an organisation to which I am proud to be appointed as its Chairperson.”
