Report of CW Audit.

The committee received the latest Internal Audit progress report. During discussion, the following points were raised:

·         The intention to annually review housing applications

·         The number of applicants on the housing waiting list (it was agreed that a response to this would be sought)

·         The intention not to replace the Asset Maintenance Surveyor in Housing Repairs, but to integrate the post within the Housing Investment Manager role, which had been recently recruited. A further review of this was requested in 6-8 months.

The Internal Auditor reported that the Housing service had recently undergone a restructure and in light of that, he felt the outcome of the audit was positive.

RESOLVED – the report be noted and a further report on Housing Repairs be brought to the December meeting of the committee.
