EPA Audits of Local Authority Performance

The EPA carries out audits of local authorities under the Local Authority Performance Framework. These audits assess how local authorities are implementing the National Enforcement Priorities. They also provide an opportunity for the EPA to offer advice and support to help improve environmental enforcement performance. The audits allow the EPA to examine the nature, scope and impacts of local authority enforcement activities.

The audits are carried out under Section 63(2) of the Environmental Protection Agency Acts 1992 and 2003.
