Intern­al Audit Pro­gress Report

Sum­mary

This paper provides the Audit and Risk Com­mit­tee with a sum­mary of intern­al audit activ­ity since its last meet­ing and con­firms the reviews planned for the com­ing quarter, identi­fy­ing any changes to the annu­al plan.

We have com­pleted three audits since the last Audit and Risk Com­mit­tee meet­ing: Health and Safety, Her­it­age Hori­zons and Fol­low Up Part 1.

Fol­low­ing dis­cus­sions with man­age­ment regard­ing the scope of the Fin­ance Sys­tem review it was agreed that Azets would take a con­sultancy style approach to the work, sup­port­ing man­age­ment in their review of the cur­rent fin­ance sys­tem and con­sid­er­a­tion of the require­ments for any future sys­tems and options appraisals.
