Ask the Tutor ACCA AA

Corporate Govenance

Can a non executive director sit on the audit committee for x Company even though this person was the auditor for x company 3 years ago and has financial experience? Also the CEO of the x company employed his sister as a NED with no financial experience, but also sits on the audit committee. Due to independence who would get rid off the audit committee? I hope this makes sense.

Q1 Yes. It seems that the three gap is enough to create independencs. Q2 No. Close family members are not independent.
