Peer Review Committee
Committee Structure & Function
Membership on the committee shall consist of no more than 24 members including the Chairman. The Executive Director shall be an ex-officio member. Members appointed to the committee must meet criteria established by the Peer Review Standards of the AICPA. Each member of a committee charged with responsibility for acceptance of reviews must be currently active in public practice at a supervisory level in the accounting or auditing function of a firm enrolled in an approved practice monitoring program as a proprietor, partner, shareholder, or as a manager or person with equivalent supervisory responsibilities. A majority of the members must also possess the qualifications required of on-site Peer Review team captains. A member may not participate in any discussion or have any vote with respect to a reviewed firm as to which the member lacks independence or has a conflict of interest.
No more than 1/3 new members should be appointed on an annual basis with a cross section of representation covering all practice segments.
The objectives of the Peer Review Committee are to oversee the operation of the Society/AICPA Peer Review Program in accordance with the standards; to maintain appropriate confidentiality; to coordinate with the State Board as provided in the standards and by Society Board Policy; to act in such fashion to improve the practice of public accounting in Louisiana through the issuance of positive and remedial requirements for deficient firms.
