A Member questioned why there were two identical columns in relation to the Welsh Church Fund for 2020.  It was agreed that an adjustment was required.  It was noted that the audit fees had risen by 3% and justification was requested.  The Wales Audit Officer explained that the costs recorded are the actual costs of delivering the audit.
