Issue - meetings

To receive and consider the annual audit letter from the Audit Commission. 

The committee received and considered the annual audit letter 2008/09 from the Audit Commission. 

The committee noted that apologies had been received from the auditor who was unable to attend the meeting due to adverse weather conditions.  In the auditor’s absence it was reported that the Audit Commission was content with the council’s performance and generally, all the work the Audit Commission carried out was unqualified. 

The committee was pleased with the report, believing that it reflected well on the council’s work in difficult circumstances. 

RESOLVED

that the annual audit letter 2008/09 from the Audit Commission be welcomed.
