Internal Audit Progress Report

Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Board received a report from the Divisional Manager – Audit, Procurement and Operational Finance, updating them on the internal audit activity since the last progress report to the Board on 23 November 2022.  It also highlighted any matters that were relevant to the Board’s responsibilities as the Council’s Audit Committee.

 

Members were referred to appendix one, which listed all the planned work for the year and its current status.  The schedule of audits had been updated to reflect the progress made in completing audits since the last update to the Board.  By the end of October 2022, 696 days of audit work had been completed, which represented 68% of the total planned days for the year.  Planned work continued to progress but it was noted that as reported previously, planned work remained behind target due to staff turnover and delays in filling vacancies.  

 

Appended to the report were the executive summaries of the reports issued numbering 2 to 11, as listed in the report.

 

RESOLVED:  That the Internal Audit Progress Report and comments made be noted.
