Agenda item

Report of the Town Clerk.

The Sub-Committee received a report of the Town Clerk detailing a list of Outstanding References from the last meeting.

Matters Arising

The Sub-Committee asked that all interim updates circulated electronically between meetings be added to the agenda under ‘Actions taken since the last meeting of the Sub-Committee’. The Town Clerk undertook to add a default item to all future agendas to detail action taken. (5)

Item 5. Internal Audit Update Report

The Commissioner noted that the latest position in respect of Standing Operating Procedures (SOPs) due for review is reported to the Performance Management Group (PMG) monthly. The Chairman asked that an annual update be provided at the first Sub-Committee meeting in each financial year. (6)

The Chairman noted there was one outstanding reference with regard to recommendations from the audits completed. This related to new officers, staff and contractors signing off that relevant policies and procedures had been brought to their attention as part of the induction process. The Commissioner asserted that the template had been drafted for this purpose and it was with HR for consultation, agreement and implementation. This was estimated to be complete by the end of February 2017. (7)

Item 7. 2^nd Quarter Performance Against Measures

The Chairman had requested that the Police look into breaking down the statistics on victim-based vs. non-victim-based ASB. The Commissioner reported that the CAD template format does not allow for such analysis. It would be a challenge to find a way of getting this breakdown and the Commissioner would continue to investigate. (8)

RESOLVED – That the list of Outstanding References be noted and updated.
