Issue - meetings

The Committee was presented with an update on the progress of the 2023/24 Internal Audit Plan.

Since the previous meeting, the reports on Cyber Risk and Follow Up had been finalised. A draft Bus Data Quality report had also been issued and was awaiting management response. It was expected that this would be presented to the December meeting.

RESOLVED that the Committee:

1. Note the progress of the Internal Audit Plan 2023/24; and,

2.    Agree to defer the internal audit on Governance to the March meeting.
