9 Internal Audit Plan 2017-18 PDF 207 KB
Minutes:
The Committee had before it a report by David Hughes (Internal Audit) which sought approval of the Internal Audit Plan for the Aberdeen City IJB for 2017-18.
The report recommended:-
That Committee approve the Internal Audit Plan for 2017-18.
David Hughes spoke to the report and advised that the Internal Audit Plan was proportionate and in line with the light touch approach adopted by internal auditors across Scotland with regards to IJBs. Mr Hughes noted he would receive assurance on the robustness of IJB governance through receipt of IJB papers and attendance at Board and Committee meetings; as well as work undertaken by ACC and NHSG internal auditors. He added that this assurance would support the development of Internal Audit’s financial control statement.
Thereafter the Committee discussed the development of governance arrangements for hosted services and the Chief Officer explained that a Pan-Grampian agreement on a framework for hosted services was being discussed. She confirmed that a workshop session on hosted services would be added to the Developmental Timetable.
The Committee resolved:-
(i) to approve the Internal Audit Plan for 2017-18; and
(ii) to request that a workshop session on Hosted Services be added to the Developmental Timetable.
