This was a great recommendation from CIPFA in 2022, emphasising the importance of having an independent chair for Local Government Audit Committees. Despite its significance, many Local Authorities have yet to adopt this practice. Independent Members play a crucial role in enhancing the effectiveness of committees and ensuring the independence of Internal Audit. An independent chair can provide unbiased leadership, ensuring impartial discussions and decisions, ultimately boosting the credibility of the committee's work. By having a chair who is not a council member or part of the executive team, potential conflicts of interest can be mitigated. This approach fosters objectivity, and transparency, and aligns with best governance practices, enhancing public trust in the audit process and financial management of local authorities.

In today's era of unprecedented complexity and scrutiny, the audit committee plays a vital role in ensuring the integrity and reliability of an organization's financial reporting and risk management processes. The IBDO publication, 'Audit Committee Self-Assessment', is a timely and indispensable resource for audit committees seeking to navigate the evolving landscape of corporate governance and regulatory requirements. This guide is essential for audit committees to assess their effectiveness, identify areas for improvement, and develop a roadmap for future growth. By leveraging this self-assessment framework, audit committees can enhance their oversight capabilities, foster a culture of transparency and accountability, and ultimately contribute to the long-term success and sustainability of their organizations. As we look to the future, it is crucial for audit committees to prioritize self-assessment, continuous learning, and adaptation to emerging risks and challenges - this publication provides a valuable foundation for achieving these goals. #Auditcommittee #Riskmanagement #Internalaudit #Governance #Compliance

The Institute of Internal Auditors has released its new Global Internal Audit Standards, which I'm sure you've all read by now - all 119 pages... They have been designed to help internal auditors – and their organizations – respond better to today's complex and rapidly changing business environment. But my question to the internal auditors out there is this. Do you find these documents helpful - as a one size fits all document covering all industries (and for the first time the public sector), - or do you find it constrains how you work and believe that there should be a little more flexibility in the standards to allow you to operate most effectively for your business? #IIAStandards #iia #internalaudit #risk #internalauditors
