Minutes:

The Head of the Internal Audit Consortium presented a publication to the committee that had been republished by the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) on the role of the Head of Audit. It was noted that although there had been no major changes since 2010 there would be value in reacquainting members with the statement.

 

The statement highlighted five key principles for the Head of Internal Audit and the committee was assured that the Consortium abide by these principles.

 

RESOLVED –

 

That the arrangements and processes set out in the report meet the requirements of the CIPFA statement on the Role of the Head of Internal Audit.
