Management statement: Financial Memorandum and Dossier of Controls
The Management Statement: Financial Memorandum (MSFM) and Dossier of Controls is made up of 3 parts. Parts 1 and 2 are the MSFM while Part 3 is the Dossier of Controls.
Together these documents set out the controls to be exercised over the different areas of the Northern Ireland Housing Executive’s (NIHE) activities by the Department. It represents, therefore, a formal statement by the Department of the standards it requires NIHE to achieve in relation to the probity of activities.
