EMAIL FROM THE EXTERNAL AUDITOR
Dear Mrs Plumridge
Thank you for your email of 18 September 2015, addressed to a member of our team.
The comment in our report was in response to your email of 10 July 2015 where you stated:-
'A member of the Parish Council who is not a cheque signatory, nor Chairman or Vice Chairman has the role of Member Internal Auditor and monitors all payments, the cash book, bank statements, policies such as risk assessments, and advises on processes. He signs bank statements that have been reconciled with the cash book. On any matter that is not apparent to the members, and there is very little that does not appear in the Minutes, he is able to advise the Council. On the strength of this the Council considered itself able to tick Box 6. '
This was taken to be in reference to the Internal Auditor who was completing Section 4, as the notes to Section 2, Box 6 specifically discusses the process as involving a competent person, independent of the financial controls and procedures. Our original query to you was in respect of the delay between the Council approving Section 2 and the Internal Auditor completing Section 4 and we asked what evidence the Council had relied upon when approving the response to Section 2, Box 6.
We now appreciate that the process described above is in addition to the Independent Internal Audit procedures that have also taken place.
Please feel free to display a copy of this email alongside the report to clarify the position.
Kind regards
