Minutes:

The Committee considered a report, North Devon Council Internal Audit Plan 2020-21, (circulated previously).

 

The Internal Auditor, Mr Curnow, advised that the Internal Audit Plan 2020-21 was based on:

 

·         23 identified areas and associated Corporate risks

·         National Fraud Initiative was an annual review as well us duties of the Crematorium

·         A new risk added to this plan was Climate change which would be audited by means of looking at the Authority’s response to climate change initiatives.

·         Cyber audits could be a two to three year piece of work

·         Council tax and benefits was being looked at within areas such as discounts

·         The plan was likely to respond and change throughout the year

 

RESOLVED that the Internal Audit Plan 2020-21 be approved.
