Minutes:

Peter Farrow, Head of Audit presented the report on the Internal Audit Plan 2021-2022 that provided the Committee with a risk-based internal audit

plan, incorporating a strategic statement for internal audit, and based upon an assessment of assurance needs.

 

The Committee were advised that a number of deferred audits from the previous 2020-2021 plan had been included in the 2021-2022 audit plan where appropriate.

 

Following questions on payment of grants, Peter Farrow reassured members that over 4,000 grants had been processed so far and tools had been used such as the Government recommended ‘Spotlight’ RAG

rating tool and NFI to run background checks and validate data on those applying for the grants. Councillor Lynne Moran requested that the grants for Early Years be monitored.

 

Praise was given to Peter Farrow and the Team on the work they had conducted.

 

Resolved:

That the risk based internal audit plan for 2021-2022 be approved.
