The Voice and audits are complimentary.

One of the first orders of business of the Voice would be to request a full audit on spending so they have a baseline and better understanding of where the money is going so they can identify ineffective programs and redirect it to where it needs to go.

Audits are already done regularity anyway 20 or so while Dutton was in Government.

The problem with audits is they are done to show you are complying with the management intent.

If the intent is misdirected and ineffectual you can still get 100% in an audit because you did what you said you would do and wasted the money exactly correctly.

The Voice is the way to get the money used efficiently and effectively in the first place.
