The detail emerged during an annual report into Herts County Council’s shared internal audit service (SIAS), which was presented to members of the audit committee last week. The document stated that SIAS had been informed of an upcoming Ofsted inspection being due in quarters one or two of the financial year, at the same time the audit into separated migrant children was scheduled. Darren Williams, head of shared internal audit service at Hertfordshire County Council, summarised the rest of the annual report’s findings to committee members. He said: “This report provides a summary of the council’s internal audit plan, giving an update on our position as of July 3. He requested that the wording of the draft internal audit charter for the county council be amended after questions were raised at another partner’s audit committee.
