Agenda item

Report of the Head of Internal Audit and Risk Management.

Members received the Internal Auditor’s Recommendations Follow Up Report and welcomed the new ‘Appendix 3’ in respect of accepted risks.   The Chairman reminded Members of the Committee’s non-executive status and the need for some tolerance of accepted risks, as had been the case with seized goods.     The Assistant Commissioner was in attendance and gave assurance that the Police Professional Standards Team would be conducting quarterly audits of seized property and new software was in place.

In respect of the report generally, Members reiterated the importance of only allowing target dates to be changed once and noted that some; i.e. the ICT strategies, were 3 years old and likely to need updating. 

RESOLVED, that – the report be noted.
