To seek approval to extend the contract with the Internal Audit services provider for one year, plus an optional additional year.
The Council uses an external contractor to deliver its internal audit “opinion work”. The current contractor is currently finishing work from the 2014/15 Audit Plan which is the last year of the contract as it stands. It is proposed to extend the contract for a reduced number of days to cover the 2015/16 Audit Plan and optionally the 2016/17 Audit Plan.
After that consideration will be given as how to best obtain the “opinion work” in accordance with the Council’s needs.
