To receive a report setting out a summary of the work undertaken by the Internal Audit Service since the Committee last met in March 2026.

The Committee received a report (a copy of which is appended in the Minute Book) presenting a summary of the work undertaken by the Internal Audit Service since the Committee last met in March 2026.

The Head of Internal Audit, Dan Harris of RSM introduced the report, making reference to the good progress in terms of the previous year’s plan of work, and invited questions from the Committee.

The Committee commented in relation to preparedness for LGR, and questioned if the next report could be brought forward to November, unless there were strong reasons not to. The Head of Internal Audit advised that he could take that point into the scoping of the review in early July with the Chief Executive, and at the next Committee he would update on whether the timeline allowed Officers to bring that report forward in light of the Committee’s comments.

Whereupon, it was

RESOLVED

that the Committee commented on and noted the update on work undertaken by Internal Audit to date.
