Internal Auditor’s Report and Review Framework
Council review of internal auditor’s effectiveness agreed 5 August 2021 (Minute reference 5/8/21 8. d. i.)
In order to comply with the Accounts and Audit Regulations, it is stipulated that the Parish Council must provide a scanned version of the Annual Governance and Accountability Return (AGAR). Unfortunately, this is inaccessible to screen readers, so this Council has chosen to publish the full, but unsigned, AGAR in a slightly more accessible format.
The documents required to be published as part of the Annual Governance and Accountability Return (AGAR) 2020/21 are:
- Full AGAR – completed but unsigned version
- Annual Governance Statement – redacted version
- Accounting Statements – redacted version
- Internal Auditor Report – redacted version
- Variance Analysis and Bank Reconciliation
The un-redacted copies of the above documents will be available to view under the Exercise of Public Rights.
The period for the exercise of public rights under the Local Audit and Accountability Act 2014 and Accounts and Audit Regulations 2015 will be from Thursday 3 June until Wednesday 14 July (30 working days): Electors’ Rights Notice.
