Note:The engagement team should use the FI HUD attribute sampling guidance to determine the appropriate sample size for each attribute being tested. For example, if the attribute being tested relates to required activity reports then the engagement team should use the number of reports prepared that related to that attribute as the population for sample selections. This form is also required to be signed-off by the manager and in-charge.
