Issue - meetings

The Strategic Director and Monitoring Officer stated that the requirement for this additional meeting had highlighted an additional meeting would be prudent  to be scheduled in June in future years to consider governance matters as governance workloads had increased in future years, as opposed to the remit of the committee with finance.  The July meeting would then focus on financial issues.

In response to questions, the Strategic Director and Monitoring Officer advised that due to staffing changes and other work priorities it would not be possible to schedule the Constitution review report for the September meeting.  However, an update on the latest position may be possible as part of the Monitoring Officer’s annual report.  In addition to this, a discussion paper on the council’s Corporate Risks and any emerging risks that may impact the council in the future could be considered.  

RESOLVED:

That the Audit and Governance Committee Work Programme for 2022/23 be approved.
