MSG Revised Monitoring Arrangements [I086271]
This report seeks approval on revising the monitoring arrangements for Mainstream Grants.
The current monitoring arrangements were agreed by Commissioners in 2015.
Representations from the Voluntary and Community Sector have been that monitoring arrangements are not proportionate, resource intensive and divert activity from delivery to monitoring administration.
The council’s recent LGA Peer Review recommended that proportionate monitoring arrangements be considered. The LGA Peer Review recommended that officers work with Internal Audit to develop more proportionate monitoring arrangements for grants.
The first period of the Mainstream Grant extension ends December 2018. The new procedures need to be agreed and in place ready for the reporting cycle from January 2019. |
