The Cabinet considered a report of the District Auditor presenting the Annual Governance Report for Wirral Council, which summarised the findings from the 2011/2012 audit which was substantially complete. The report included the key messages that had arisen from the audit and the results of the work that had been undertaken to assess the Council’s arrangements to secure value for money in the use of resources.

Councillor A. McLachlan stated that a lot of key issues and key themes had been acknowledged and was confident that the statement would different next year.

RESOLVED:

That the report, and the improvements achieved in the current year, be noted.
