Report by Chief Internal Auditor

The Committee gave consideration to a report providing a summary of Internal Audit activity and progress during Quarter 4 of 2018/19 against a number of areas, which included:

·         2018/19 Audit Plan progress

·         Additional audit team activity

·         Continuous monitoring

·         Internal Audit development plan

·         Performance indicators

The Chief Internal Auditor highlighted an additional audit which has been requested, following receipt of correspondence, in relation to the Council’s approach to Traffic Regulation Orders which would be a departure from the already agreed Internal Audit Plan.  He advised that he was confident that resources are available to carry out this additional audit within the timescales requested. It was noted that  the output of this audit would be reported to the June meeting of the Committee. 

Decision:

The Audit and Scrutiny Committee agreed to endorse the report.
