Member Training 2022/23 - Member Discussion

Minutes:

The Scrutiny and Elections Officer referred to the guidance document on knowledge and skills for Audit Committee Members, which had been on the agenda for the Committee meeting on 26th April 2022 (Appendix 2 to the Self-Assessment Action Plan). She explained how she had changed Appendix C of the document into a checklist, and would circulate the checklist to Audit Members for them to complete by 9th June.

 

The Scrutiny and Elections Officer informed Members that CIPFA were running Audit training in June and September 2022 and the LGA also had a Councillor Workbook which Members could complete.

 

Councillor Tom Kirkham believed it would be beneficial for current Audit Members to undergo Audit refresher training in order to better support the 2023 intake of elected Members.
