To consider the Annual Audit Letter from Ernst & Young LLP which sets out the key issues arising from the external auditor’s work, which the external auditor feels should be brought to the attention of the Council.

The Committee considered a report from Ernst & Young LLP which presented the Annual Audit Letter for the year ended 31 March 2018.  The letter set out the key issues arising from the company’s work as the Council’s external auditor.

The Ernst & Young Manager advised of an error on page 15 of the Letter.  Under planning materiality she stated that ‘75% of gross revenue expenditure’ should read a ‘2% of gross revenue expenditure’.  She then thanked the Council’s officers for their assistance.
