Decision:
That the updated Internal Audit Charter be approved.
Minutes:
The Internal Audit Manager presented a report to consider the outcome of the latest review of the Charter in order to meet legal and regulatory requirements and suggestions from the recent external assessment of service compliance. Some minor changes had been made to reflect current working practice, terminology and positions within the Council.
Following a question by Sally Ellis on section 4.13, it was confirmed that the Internal Audit Manager did not currently have responsibility for services outside Internal Audit. The section was included in the Charter in the event of any future changes to enable appropriate safeguards to be introduced.
The Internal Audit Manager provided clarification to Councillor Paul Johnson on the range of skills and qualifications within Internal Audit which met competency requirements of the Code of Ethics.
RESOLVED:
That the updated Internal Audit Charter be approved.
