FSD 22078

A Member asked how audits were planned ahead for the next six months against the Risk Register and why some risks that were marked as ‘red’ appeared to have no planned audit coverage. The Head of Audit and Assurance responded and said that red risks should have some coverage and if this coverage was not planned for the next year then it would have meant those areas were already covered. ‘Homes for Ukraine’ had not been subject to a formal audit, but the Internal Audit Team had been involved and continued to be involved on an advisory basis.

The HAA said that a Budget Monitoring audit was planned and that a Capital Strategy audit was in progress.  A Member asked what ‘BC’ an ‘EP’ meant and it was clarified that ‘BC’ referred to ‘business continuity’ and ‘EP’ referred to ‘emergency planning’.

RESOLVED that the Internal Audit Plan for November 2022 to March 2023 be approved.
