Issue - meetings

(a)       That the Forward Work Programme, as amended, be accepted; and

(b)       That the Internal Audit Manager, in consultation with the Chair and Vice-Chair of the Committee, be authorised to vary the Forward Work Programme between meetings, as the need arises.

The Internal Audit Manager presented the Forward Work Programme for consideration and suggested that the Committee may wish to consider re-aligning the document to ensure that reports were received at the appropriate time.

Due to the number of items scheduled for the September meeting and to allow sufficient time for those requiring approval within a statutory deadline, it was agreed that the item on Asset Disposals and Capital Receipts and the Annual Report on External Inspections be moved to the November meeting or later.  Members also agreed not to receive the Internal Audit Progress Report in September and to incorporate this into the report for the November meeting.

RESOLVED:

(a)       That the Forward Work Programme, as amended, be accepted; and

(b)       That the Internal Audit Manager, in consultation with the Chair and Vice-Chair of the Committee, be authorised to vary the Forward Work Programme between meetings, as the need arises.
