Audit Partnership
Internal Audit is established by the council to undertake a wide
range of independent reviews of its systems and operations. The aim
of these reviews is to help ensure that the council achieves its
objectives and to provide assurance that it manages its risks
efficiently and effectively.
Internal Audit critically evaluates the council’s internal
control framework and, where necessary, makes recommendations for
improvement and the introduction of best practice throughout the
organisation. Internal Audit is a statutory service and is
required to operate in accordance with the Code of Practice for
Internal Audit in Local Government.
Since September 2005, the internal audit service has been
provided through a partnership with Maidstone Borough Council.
The partnership has provided a great opportunity to share best
practice and make use of audit skills and experience.
