- Guidance notes that provide you with a background as to how to use the manual and a what’s changed letter identifying all changes from the previous version of the manual.
- Example letters that may be of help throughout an audit including an example letter of representation and a planning communication letter. A group audit questionnaire is also included, along with a group audit instruction letter.

It also includes specific procedures by audit area, for example, revenue and receivables, and sets out the Mercia approach used within the programmes contained in your Audit Manual.
