Decision:

That the report be accepted.

Minutes:

The Internal Audit Manager presented the update on progress of the Internal Audit department.

 

On action tracking, there were only two outstanding which demonstrated the effectiveness of the system in holding managers to account for their respective areas.  The involvement of ICT business partners on timescales would also have a positive effect on action tracking.  On the operational Plan, there had been 11 new requests for additional work.

 

Following a query by Councillor Johnson, it was explained that delays to the high priority audit for Greenfield Valley Heritage Park were to allow time for the establishment of the new Board of Trustees.

 

The Chief Executive welcomed the achievement of all targets on performance indicators and said that this reflected the improved working practices led by the Internal Audit Manager.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the report be accepted.
