Issue - meetings

The Chair presented the Annual Report of the Audit Committee. 

A Member noted a decline in attendance by Committee Members and commented that improvement is necessary.  The attendance of just four Members at the meeting held on 19^th March 2020 coincided with the beginning of lockdown due to COVID 19. It was agreed that attendance should be monitored.   It was welcomed that the implementation of remote access meetings has improved attendance.

The Chair was thanked for the report and it was approved, subject to minor typographical amendments, for presentation to Council.
