Anti-Fraud Policies Item PO 11/005 referred from Policy Overview Committee minutes of 18th January, 2011 |
Consideration was given to the report of the Director of Finance reviewing the Anti-Fraud Policy and Housing and Council Tax Benefit Anti-Fraud Policy which were designed to set out the Council's zero tolerance approach to fraud and corruption and promote the anti-fraud culture of the organisation. It was noted that the revisions had been considered jointly by Tonbridge and Malling and Gravesham Borough Council staff as part of the partnership arrangements between the Internal Audit and Benefit Investigations Sections. The Policy Overview Committee and Audit Committee at their meetings on 18 and 24 January 2011 had commended the policies for adoption. RECOMMENDED: That the updated Anti-Fraud and Corruption Policy and Housing and Council Tax Benefit Anti-Fraud Policy, as set out at Annexes 1 and 2 to the report to the Policy Overview Committee, be endorsed for adoption. *Referred to Council |
