SA 210 is effective for audits of financial statements for periods beginning on or after 01st April, 2010.
SA 210 deals with the auditor’s responsibilities in agreeing the terms of the audit engagement with management and, where appropriate, those charged with governance. This includes establishing that certain preconditions for an audit, responsibility for which rests with management and, where appropriate, those charged with governance, are present. SA 220, “Quality Control for an Audit of Financial Statements” deals with those aspects of engagement acceptance that are within the control of the auditor.
