FUTURE PROVISION OF THE INTERNAL AUDIT SERVICE PRIVATE SESSION
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC TO NOTE
Under the law, the Committee is entitled to consider certain items in private where in the circumstances the public interest in maintaining the matter exempt from publication outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information. Members of the public will be asked to leave the meeting when such items are discussed.
The Committee is recommended to consider the following reports in private on the grounds that they contain ‘exempt’ information as defined by the Local Government (Access to Information) Act 1985, as amended, and consequently that the Sub-Committee makes the following resolution:-
“that the press and public be excluded during consideration of the following reports in accordance with the provisions of Section 100A(4) of the Local Government Act 1972, as amended, because they involve the likely disclosure of 'exempt' information, as defined in the Paragraphs detailed below of Part 1 of Schedule 12A of the Act, and taking all the circumstances into account, it is considered that the public interest in maintaining the information as exempt outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information.”
Paragraph 3
Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority). •Future Provision of the Internal Audit Service
The Director of Finance submits a report to update the Committee with the progress being made to engage a new internal audit service provider.
