l'exercice du controle fiscal
fiscal control


Explanation:
From what I can understand, "l'exercice" is redundant and useless. They would be talking about the financial consequences on the fiscal control. Just like "exercising", "controling" can be an action and doesn't need an action verb.

disagree  philgoddard: "Exercice" means "financial year", and "contrôle" means "audit".

  -> Indeed, but since the wording is rather weak, I tried to figure out what the writer wanted to say. David's interpretation sheds new light on the text. : )

l'exercice du controle fiscal
excercise of financial discipline


Explanation:
I believe this is what they are trying to say...in a somewhat polite and roundabout way.

disagree  Daryo: "roundabout way" has no place in an auditors' report, and also "financial discipline" is _too wide_ in meaning, would also include forms of "internal control" "internal audit" "control by Central Bank" etc.; here it's ONLY about the control by the taxmen

l'exercice du contrôle fiscal
tax examination


Explanation:
Or perhaps even tax audit, but I'm not sure.

Eur-Lex tends to use "fiscal" – as in "fiscal controls" / "fiscal supervision" – but I'm not sure that's specific enough in this context.
See #18 http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Notice.do?mode=dbl&lang=fr&lng1=fr,...
See #10 http://eur-lex.europa.eu/Notice.do?mode=dbl&lng1=fr,en&lang=...

The GDT gives "audit" as well as "control" for "contrôle," and Termium gives "[tax] audit" or "tax investigation" for "contrôle fiscal," and that makes more sense to me here.

So maybe.
