Report of the Audit and Risk Manager

The Audit and Risk Manager submitted a report (previously circulated) to provide Members with a progress report of activity and proposed activity for the next period.

The submitted report outlined progress to date on audit assignment work, consultancy/contingency activity and provided a detailed feedback on the performance of the service and the position in relation to the completion of audit work.

It was also reported that COVID-19 had brought challenges to the Authority and it continues to be the focus for a number of service areas; audit advice had been provided as required and time had been spent transitioning to new ways of working; and testing had been undertaken and good progress had been made to date.

RESOLVED – That the activity be noted.
