Internal Audit Update PDF 101 KB Report of the Head of Internal Audit and Risk Management. Additional documents:
Minutes: The Committee received a report of the Head of Internal Audit providing an update on Internal Audit activity undertaken at the Barbican Centre since November 2017, as well as a status update in respect of planned work for the remainder of 2017/18.
With reference to the three-year audit plan outlined at Appendix 2, a Member observed that it was difficult to get a sense of what other areas might have been considered and discounted in identifying the selected audit areas. It was asked if there was a more comprehensive background document which Members might see which would facilitate a broader understanding and scrutiny of the selection process. It was also asked to what extent Internal Audit were involved with scrutinising the Risk Register and the various controls in place.
The Head of Internal Audit outlined the way in which the three-year plan was compiled and confirmed that further information about the broader range of potential audits that had been considered could be provided. Members were also reassured that there was flexibility built into the system to facilitate ad hoc requests from management for audit work on emerging areas of importance. Whilst the three-year plan set out in the report was prepared specifically for the Barbican, there were also a number of corporate audits across the entire City Corporation which took place, many of which would involve and impact the Barbican.
The Chairman noted that the Committee had previously requested sight of the completed audit reports for Barbican-based reviews and asked the Head of Internal Audit to ensure that these were provided to Members, through the Clerk, in future.
