Minutes:
The Board considered a report of the Divisional Manager, Audit,
Procurement and Operational Finance, which provided Members with a summary of
internal audit work completed since the last progress report in February 2018.
The report also highlighted matters relevant to the Board’s responsibilities as
the Council’s Audit Committee.
It was noted that a total of 22 Internal Audit reports had been
finalised since the last progress report, and this figure included audits from
both the 2017/18 and 2018/19 Audit Plans. An overall assurance opinion was
provided for each audit engagement. It was reported that work was well underway
on the 2018/19 Audit Plan, with approximately 24% of the total planned days for
the year being completed.
There had been two changes to the work planned for the year and details
of these and the reasons were set out in the report for Members’ information.
Work completed in Quarter 1 also included the annual audit undertaken
for the Manchester Port Health Authority, which was reported directly to the
Port Health Authority Board.
RESOLVED: That the update on progress
against the 2018/19 Internal Audit Plan be received.
