PCAOB seeks additional insight on proposed amendments

Hot Topic | March 2024

The PCAOB hosted a virtual roundtable on the NOCLAR proposal and has briefly reopened the comment period.

The PCAOB staff hosted a public virtual roundtable on March 6, 2024, to discuss certain aspects of the PCAOB’s proposal to amend auditing standards related to the auditor’s responsibility for considering a company’s noncompliance with laws and regulations. The PCAOB has also reopened the comment period on the original proposed amendments until March 18, 2024.
