Decision:
That the proposed approach for the involvement of Audit Committee Members in the Annual Governance Statement process be endorsed.
Minutes:
The Chief Officer (Governance) presented the report to set out the process for Member involvement on the Annual Governance Statement for 2020/21 which had been delayed due to the emergency situation. The report proposed that Members of the Committee be invited to participate in a ‘Member Challenge’ workshop in March or April 2021 following development of the draft AGS by officers.
In supporting the proposed arrangements, Sally Ellis was assured that processes were in place to encourage public feedback on services during the pandemic.
The five Committee Members who volunteered to participate in the workshop were the Chair, Councillor Heesom, Councillor Johnson, Sally Ellis and Allan Rainford. Arrangements would be made with those individuals nearer the time.
Councillor Heesom thanked officers for the report and asked that any supporting documents be provided in advance of the workshop.
The recommendation was moved and seconded by Councillor Heesom and Sally Ellis.
RESOLVED:
That the proposed approach for the involvement of Audit Committee Members in the Annual Governance Statement process be endorsed.
