Meeting documents

The Vice Chair invited the Key Audit Partner of Grant Thornton to present the report. He began by noting that it summarised the outcome of the audit work on the pension fund and said that assurance letters had been completed and would be issued. The rest of the audit was substantially complete, with just a few outstanding queries remaining, and he praised the diligence of the Officers in responding to queries from the external auditors, particularly the Service Manager-Investments.

The Vice Chair invited questions from the Committee, and during consideration of the reports, issues/concerns were raised, questions were asked/answered, and further information was provided.
