    BLACKPOOL COUNCIL PEER REVIEW OF INTERNAL AUDIT AGAINST THE UK PUBLIC SECTOR INTERNAL AUDIT STANDARDS CARRIED OUT BY Stephanie Donaldson Jean Gleave ASSESSMENT DATES: 8 – 10 June 2016 FINAL REPORT DATE: 13th October 2016 1. Introduction 2. Approach / Methodology 3. Conclusion: Overall Assessment 4. Observations / Recommendations Appendix 1 Review Team Experience / Qualifications Appendix 2 Detailed Assessment Table Appendix 3 Action Table Appendix 4 Additional Points for Consideration Blackpool Council Peer Review of Internal Audit against the Public Sector Internal Audit Standards 1 Introduction 1.1 All principal local authorities and other relevant bodies subject to the Accounts and Audit (England) Regulations 2015 (amended) must make provision for internal audit in accordance with the Public Sector Internal Audit Standards (PSIAS) as well as the (CIPFA) Local Government Application Note. 1.2 A professional, independent and objective internal audit service is one of the key elements of good governance in local government. 1.3 The PSIAS require that an external assessment of an organisation’s internal audit function is carried out once every five years by a qualified, independent assessor or assessment team from outside of the organisation. External assessments can be in the form of a full external assessment, or a self- assessment with independent external validation. 1.4 The North West Chief Audit Executives’ Group (NWCAE) has established a ‘peer-review’ process that is managed and operated by the constituent authorities. This process addresses the requirement of external assessment through ‘self-assessment with independent external validation’ and this report presents the summary findings of the review carried out on behalf of Blackpool Council.

    MEMBER UPDATE JUNE 2020 | JUNE 2020 PAGE | 02 CHRIS SHIRLING-ROOKE REFLECTS It is my immense pleasure to welcome you to the June edition of the Mersey Maritime Ezine! Once again I am astounded by the volume of material we are able to present to you this month from a whole range of businesses and organisations connected with the maritime sector here in the Liverpool City Region and beyond. I can’t quite believe it is June, very nearly July, already as we have passed the longest day and by rights we should be looking forward to a little relaxation and refreshment over the summer months. This year has been quite different! The global pandemic continues to affect all of our lives, and whilst for many businesses their work has continued apace, I sense there’s a real desire to start returning to something that looks like ‘normal’. This will still mean being sensible, alert and alive to the new realities that the health crisis has thrown our way and recognising that it hasn’t yet gone away. It is worth reflecting for just a moment on where we are as an organisation and how we have responded to the challenge we’ve faced as a maritime community. During the last 15 weeks Mersey Maritime has: Continued to provide guidance and support for our 200 members E Delivered 22 digital events… … to over 550 individuals Issued 2 industry wide surveys, and C Fed the results into national and local government policy and planning. E I truly believe we are ‘Stronger Together’ and I hope you will agree that I Mersey Maritime has risen to the challenge that the last few weeks has presented to us all.
