Answer:

When conducting the internal audit you need to check all requirements of the standard and determine to what level the organization is compliant to requirements of the standard. Documents to be reviewed are all documents and records required by the standard and those that the organization determined as necessary for maintaining the EMS (Environmental Management System).
