More delays ...

The following email was sent on Friday 11 September by Mark Delap, Department of Law, HR and Asset Management

TO MEMBERS OF THE AUDIT AND RISK MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE

Please note that as a result of ongoing work in relation to the internal audit PIDA report, the publication of the agenda for the Special Meeting of the Committee to be held on 23 September has been delayed. Consequently, it will not be delivered to members this evening. However, it is anticipated that the report will be cleared early next week and I will ensure that you receive immediate notification of its publication.
The agenda for the ordinary scheduled meeting has been published and is now available on the Council's intranet. You can access it by clicking here .

How many times has the report gone back to Internal Audit with the order "Must Do Better Next Time" scrawled across it in red ink?

Originally due in December 2008, then before the postponed 1 September meeting, the report was promised for two weeks ago, last week, and now this week.

The cynic would ask if Wirral's trying to hold onto it until the Libraries report comes out?

Do they think they can bury it, or hide the truths it should contain?

As our American Cousins would say "No way, Jose"!
