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.

  • Liverpool City Region Culture & Internationalism Research
    LIVERPOOL CITY REGION CULTURE & INTERNATIONALISM RESEARCH OCTOBER 2020 Cover photography credits: Front cover: (left) Slavery Rememberance Day Libation – Pete Carr, (right) Kyle Glenn Back cover: Kirschner Amao This research was commissioned in March 2020 and published in October 2020. The report and associated documents use the term Black and Minority Ethnic (BAME) in relation to ethnic minority people. This is based on its use in many of the data sources cited within this research, including the Office for National Statistics (ONS). The International Working Group (IWG) acknowledges that there has been debate on the usage of this term for some time, with it becoming increasingly contested during the life of this research. The IWG appreciates that there are alternative and more appropriate ways of describing people from an ethnic minority background and will ensure this is reflected in all future work and communications. International Working Group Since the completion of this research, the International Working Group has been renamed the International Strategy and Delivery Group (ISDG). This has not been retrospectively amended in the report, however, the IWG will be referred to as the ISDG in all future communications. 2 LIVERPOOL CITY REGION CULTURE & INTERNATIONALISM RESEARCH Contents Introduction ...................................................................................4 Section 1 - Residents ......................................................................8 Section 2 - International Students ................................................13

  • Northern Powerhouse Factsheet Key Figures on the City Regions in the Northern Powerhouse June 2015
    Northern Powerhouse factsheet Key figures on the city regions in the Northern Powerhouse June 2015 Introduction The idea of a ‘Northern Powerhouse’ was first introduced in June 2014 by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, in a speech in Manchester. He made the case that the lack of economic and physical connections between the cities and city regions of the North of England was holding back their growth, with significant implications for the national economy. In the Chancellor’s own words: “the whole is less than the sum of its parts…so the powerhouse of London dominates more and more.” For Osborne, the solution to this challenge is the creation of a Northern Powerhouse – “not one city, but a collection of northern cities - sufficiently close to each other that combined they can take on the world.” Since the Chancellor’s initial speech, a raft of interventions have been announced to help turn the rhetoric of a Northern Powerhouse into reality – including the Greater Manchester Devolution Deal, Transport for the North, and the Northern Transport Strategy. With the creation of a Northern Powerhouse set to be a key priority for the new Government, this briefing sets out the current economic profile of the key city regions across the North and compares their performance with that of London and of the UK as a whole. Reflecting the policy pledges contained within the Conservative manifesto, for the purposes of this analysis the Northern Powerhouse is made up of the city regions of Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Hull and
