Minutes:

The report of the Chairman of the Audit Committee was produced to inform the Council of the means by which the Committee had provided independent assurance to those charged with governance on the adequacy of the risk assessment framework, the internal control environment and the integrity of financial reporting and annual governance processes.  The report summarised the work carried out by the Committee during 2016/17 and concluded that the required assurance set out in the CIPFA Audit Committee Guidance had been provided to those charged with governance.  The Leader of the Council thanked the Chairman and the members of the Audit Committee for their due diligence over the previous twelve months. 

 

RECOMMENDED:   That the Annual Report be presented to the Council as independent assurance on the adequacy of the risk management framework, the internal control environment and the integrity of the financial reporting and annual governance processes.
