Gwent Police Authority in appeal for lay members

News | Richard Gurner | Published: 10:00, Tuesday August 28th, 2012.

Gwent Police Authority and the Chief Constable of Gwent Police are looking for three people to act as lay members of its Joint Audit Committee.

The successful candidates will help scrutinise the way policing finances operate, and offer a strong and independent voice on financial affairs.

To sit as independent members of the Joint Audit Committee, applicants should have a good understanding and experience of public sector legislation and guidance and be politically neutral.

The Audit Committee reviews and scrutinise the affairs of both organisations, looking at issues such as risk management, internal control and corporate governance as well as overseeing audit arrangements and reviewing financial statements.

Those appointed will initially be recruited to serve a five year period (from September 2012) and they will be required to attend a least four meetings per year. An allowance and expenses will be paid to lay members.

The closing date for applications is noon on Friday September 7. Shortlisted candidates will need to be available for interview on Tuesday 11th September.

For more information please visit www.gwentpa.police.uk or contact Gwent Police Authority on 01633 642200.
