Minutes:
The Board considered a report of the Divisional Manager, Audit, Procurement and Operational Finance, which provided Members with a summary of the internal audit work completed since the last progress report in March 2019. The report also highlighted matters relevant to the Board’s responsibilities as the Council’s Audit Committee.
It was noted that a total of 17 Internal Audit reports had been finalised since the last progress report, and this included audits from both 2018/19 and 2019/20 Audit Plans. An overall assurance opinion was provided for each audit engagement.
It was reported that work was well underway on the 2019/20 Audit Plan, with approximately 21.7% of the total planned days for the year being completed.
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 2019/20 Internal Audit Plan be received.
