Minutes:
Minesh Jani, Head of Risk Management and Audit presented the report circulated at agenda item 6.2 which advised Members of proposals for the annual internal audit plan 2013/14. He advised that the methodology used was the same as that employed in 2012/13, setting out the areas of risk that the Council believed it faced and enabling these to be addressed via a proper plan over the period. The planned audits would be shared between the Council's audit team Deloitte. Mr Jani recommended that to avoid incurring additional external auditor fees, some of the external audits should also be undertaken by Council auditors.
In response to Members’ questions the following information was provided:
