In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls.

The Heritage Collection is managed by the Headquarters\u2019 Heritage Service. To ensure its ongoing representation of Scouts\u2019 story, the Heritage Service continues to collect both historical and contemporary material.

Disposal of accessioned material only takes place with the approval of the Trustees or their designated representative. Disposal of non-accessioned items takes place with the approval of the Director of Commercial Services.
