Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee

Under the Local Government Act 1995, a local government must have an Audit Committee.

The Town has an Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee with the responsibility to:

• support council in fulfilling its governance and oversight responsibilities in relation to financial reporting, internal control structure, risk management systems and external audit functions and ethical accountability.
• critically examine the audit and management reports from external audits, and ensure that the Town appropriately implements any actions.
• receive and review reports prepared by the Chief Executive Officer in accordance with the Regulations, and present a report back to Council on its findings and recommendations. 

The Town's Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee is made up of elected members and independent committee members. 

No decisions are made by the Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee. Recommendations are made by the Committee for the whole Council to make a decision.

Audit, Risk and Improvement Committee meetings are not open to the public but agendas and minutes are available for viewing below.
