The
contents of the SOX Compliance Toolkit are the following
items:
A
Guide and Summary for the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
This is a detailed summary of all the act itself,
in plain English! It covers all the important
sections, and even includes a set of definitions.
It should provide substantial assistance in understanding
the main features and requirements. Example:

format. You can easily edit and adapt it for
internal use. Example:

that management should be considering when seeking
to achieve compliance with the stringent Sarbanes-Oxley
requirements. Possibly the best part of the kit
in terms of education and awareness. Example:
Compliance
Checklist
Actually a series of checklists, covering different
aspects of corporate governance. If the above
item is the best read, this item is the most useful.
Audit Committee Guide
Explains the requirements of the act relating
to the Audit Committee, and describes the main
activities that with which each the Audit Committee
member should be up to speed. Example:
Audit Committee Checklist
The Audit Committee is required to ensure that
it meets the extensive requirements of the Act.
The Audit Committee members must therefore individually
ensure that they meet the requirements for independence,
qualifications and understanding as required by
the new legislation. This checklist is supplied
to assist with this process and should be completed
by individual members and for the Committee in
respect of each period where reports are filed.
It should be noted that new members of the Committee
must be made aware of these requirements and the
checklist should be applied to each new Committee
member shortly after they have been appointed.
