Minutes:

The Chief Internal Auditor presented his report which updated the Committee on the outcome of the recruitment exercise to appoint Independent Members to this Committee to comply with the terms of reference and CIPFA guidance.

 

Two individuals had been proposed for appointment rather than one as indicated in the Terms of Reference as they had different backgrounds but both were considered to have had valuable skills to bring.

 

Members requested that explicit written consent be requested from the individuals for their CVs to be shared with all Members to detail their background and help Members in the decision at full Council. This would be investigated by officers.

 

Resolved –

That full Council be recommended to appoint Joanne Byrne and Peter McAlister as independent Members to the Audit and Risk Management Committee in an advisory and consultative non-voting role.
