Management, audit committees, and others repsonsible for internal control in an entity have indicated that they have difficulty understanding the auditor's report on material weaknesses in internal control identified in a financial statement audit.

They also believe that because the concept relates only to material misstatements of financial statements, some significant internal control deficiencies may not be reported. This proposed statement on auditing statnadards would clarify report language and replace the concept of …
