Decision Maker: Chief Executive

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

To use Richard Hastings (RPH) to provide Internal Audit
Services for a period of 5 weeks from 28th September
2015. A consultancy agreement will be used.

Reasons for the decision:

Consultancy agreement between NWLDC and Richard
Hastings needs to be signed by an appropriately
authorised officer.

Alternative options considered:

I) Using the agency Comensura to provide a temporary
internal auditor (they did not put any candidates forward)
or to use Richard Hastings through the agency which
would have been a more expensive option.

ii) using the call off arrangement with HBBC and PwC. This
was a very expensive option.
