To accept
information from the report and receive any feedback.
Decision:
To approve
the Internal Audit Charter and Internal
Audit Plan for 2022-2023.
Minutes:
The report was presented by the Audit Manager of Gwynedd Council, and
the following main points were noted:
-
It was explained that
having an internal audit gave the citizen confidence on governance issues. For
it to work effectively, an internal audit charter had to be created. The
internal audit report would be published at the end of the financial year but
if major failures arose before then, those would be highlighted by the auditors
to the Managing Director before the end of the financial year.
-
The main areas to be
audited were:
o Training
o Staff Recruitment and Retention Arrangements - with a succession plan,
with multi-location working
o Absence Management - 26% of employers cite long COVID as the main reason
for long-term absence
RESOLVED
To approve
the Internal Audit Charter and Internal Audit Plan for 2022-2023.
The meeting commenced at
1.30 p.m. and concluded at 3.15 p.m.
