The Service Director – Resources presented the Finance, Audit and Risk Committee Annual Report 2019/20 and advised that this report would normally be referred to Council. However, owing to the change in the Council’s Constitution, there was now no requirement to do so.

The Service Director – Resources pointed out an error in the report on page 49. The date shown under the Chair should be amended to read ‘May 2020’ instead of ‘May 2019’.

Councillor Sam Collins sought clarification in relation to whether he was able to vote on the report as he was a Substitute on the Finance, Audit and Risk Committee and not a Committee Member for the Civic Year 2019/20.

In response to this matter, the Democratic Services Manager advised that the Member was able to abstain if he wished.

Upon being put to the vote it was:

RESOLVED: That the Finance, Audit and Risk Committee Annual Report 2019/20 be noted.

REASON FOR DECISION: To present the Annual Report and inform the Committee of its work and achievements over a 12 month period to March 2020.
