Recommendation Tracker

Meeting: 10/12/2007 - Audit Board (this committee has been combined with the Audit, Standards & Governance Committee and no longer meets) (Item 31)

Minutes:

Consideration was given to a report which provided a summary of previously selected audit report "priority one" recommendations.

Members noted the reasons detailed in the report in relation to the recommendations which were still ongoing and outside of their target dates, and commented that they would not wish to see any further slippages beyond the new due dates established for these. The Audit Services Manager stated that it was important that managers set realistic completion dates in the first instance. With regard to recommendations 9 and 10 (National Non Domestic Rates - Billing Procedures and Bill Suppressions), Members requested that a report detailing the Council's billing procedures, including write-offs, arrears and voids, be brought to the next meeting of the Board.

RESOLVED:

(a) that the "priority one" recommendations detailed in Appendix A to the report be noted;

(b) that the recommendations that had been implemented be removed from the report and replaced by new recommendations; and
