To consider the re-appointment of an external Member of the Committee.

Audit and Risk Management Committee

(Ian David Luder, J.P., Alderman)

Re-appointment of External Member for a Third Term

At its meeting on 9 September 2011, the Court agreed a procedure for appointing

External (Independent) Members to the Audit and Risk Management Committee.

Subsequent to this, on 16 January 2014 the Court agreed a variation to this procedure such that it would allow for existing External Members to be appointed for a second term on the Committee.

On 8 December 2016, the Court agreed a further variation to permit the appointment of an external Member, Kenneth Ludlam, for a third term. The second term of another existing external Member, Ms Caroline Mawhood, was now due to expire and the Committee wished to reappoint her similarly for a third term.

Ms Mawhood had served on the Audit and Risk Management Committee, as an External Member, since its inception in 2011 and her contributions to both the Committee and the Police Performance and Resource Management Sub Committee, on which she also served, as well as the recent Auditor Appointment Panel, had been invaluable. Ms Mawhood had expressed a wish to serve for a third term and the Audit and Risk Management Committee desired to recommend this to the Court.

Resolved – That Ms Caroline Mawhood be appointed to the Audit and Risk Management Committee for a third term, expiring in 2021.
