2020/21 Annual Audit and Investigation Plan In Year Review
The Council’s 2020/21 Internal Audit and
Investigation Plan details the proposed Internal Audit and
Investigation activity and seeks to:
• provide key stakeholders with independent assurance that the
risks within the Council’s fundamental systems and processes
are being effectively and efficiently managed;
• allow the Council to demonstrate it is complying with the
relevant legislation and applicable professional standards;
• demonstrate the Council’s commitment to good
governance and a zero tolerance approach towards fraud and
corruption; and
• set out that the Team’s resources are being properly
utilised.
The originally approved Plan has been updated to refocus and
reprioritise audit and investigation activityin light of the impact
of the Covid-19 pandemic on the council’s control and
governance processes, with the aim of providing an overall Head of
Audit opinion on these processes at year end.
