Paper 8 - Outstanding Recommendations Update

This document contains an update for the Audit and Risk Committee from David Cameron, Deputy Chief Executive and Director of Corporate Services, regarding outstanding internal audit recommendations relating to information technology, cyber security, and information management. The paper suggests replacing existing outdated recommendations with revised actions. The committee is asked to agree to supersede six prior internal audit recommendations, adopt three replacement actions, receive progress updates, and ensure internal audit work reflects the Park Authority's evolving operating environment for information technology and data services. The Park Authority is currently developing a new strategic overview and updated long-term direction for its information technology and Information Management, with key actions underway including establishing an information technology strategy, embedding information management approaches, and developing a business continuity plan.
