 Thank you, Janice. Janet Torson. Thank you. I'd just like to comment on two points. In terms of the assurances that we've given about February, it is a question, as I said, of having the last elements of our work planned in, in my diary and in Mark's diary, and I've given the assurances over that. What we can't ever mitigate against is if there's sickness within the gene, for example. But at this point, the team is the two of us closing this audit out. We're not the sort of people that you can just substitute in somebody else at this late stage of the audit, because we're now onto the pulling together of all of our judgments, our key conclusions, and reporting that so that I can sign in my own name. So it's not like, you know, if one of us was suddenly taken down by Covid, that you could just wheel in another person to do that. So I just, you know, we are confident that we are well and planned and programmed, and that we will get this work done by the end of February. I'm not sure that there's much more we can say on that point to satisfy the committee members, but if they can tell us what else they'd like us to commit to, then that would be helpful. Just on the fees, just to be very clear, we do not charge for delays, we charge for the work done, and the extent of the work required because of the significant issues that we identified during the audit are what is reflected in the proposed fees. And of course we will be discussing those with Peter. They are subject to determination by the PSAA as a separate organisation, rather than the council itself. So we will need to go through that process. Thank you. Councillor Williams. Thank you. One extra request in that case, can we ask you to wrap yourselves in bubble wrap and not get ill or harmed or anything, and I would suggest that some form of strategic planning is done in the event, especially in the current circumstances. I know that from my business, if I fail to honour my contracts on time, I would have to find somebody else somehow, some way, or I would suffer consequences for that. But on the fees in previous years, there has been... You might want to use your microphones to comment. I can't hear, obviously, if you don't have it on. But in previous years, the delays that have been responsible to the external auditors have been taken into account and discounts given, and that's what I'm hoping to see further, Chair. And then, Miss Dawson may have something else to say. It's not the term of our contract to deliver to a particular time. It's not part of the contract. And we only sign the opinion when we're ready to sign, strategically, in terms of replacing audit partners and audit senior managers. Actually, what you're referring to is a tactical change at the last minute, and we can't do that because it's about the judgement and the profession that's required. Chair, not wishing ill on anybody, but most companies have something in place. If I was to walk outside the council building and get hit by a bus, there would be a contingency in place for me being incapacitated. All I'm saying is, particularly in the middle of a national pandemic, I think it would be advisable going forward if some of that was taken on board. I don't think that personally is unreasonable. Any further questions, comments? I mean, I think, and this is, I know because the accounts aren't finalised, we don't have a sad that will be issued at the conclusion. But the two main highlighted areas are a 6.4 million adjustment in the fixed asset register and a 2.7 adjustment between revenue and expenses. I'd just like to say public confirmation that this does not have a cash impact on the council in terms of these adjustments are not to do with cash. Let's do with accounting requirements. Yes, that's correct. In terms of the fixed asset, it is an increase in the asset value because it just says adjustment in the notes. I believe that's the case. Okay, there are no further questions or comments from the committee. I think both repeat a comment that you made. Council Williams, this committee is well aware and appreciates the hard work of both the auditors and the officers and yourself, Peter. We are, I've said it before, we are almost there. But this committee and me as chair want us to deliver this by the end of February. This has to happen. And if it doesn't happen or we start to get delays, having forbid somebody gets COVID, then we will need, this committee will need to have a meeting at the beginning of March to understand the cause of the delay and to understand what this committee can challenge the council with, all the auditors to make sure that we can resolve the issues and get on board with the timeline to deliver the update and the accounts by the end of the year and be on top of things. Okay, thanks to Jack for her report and the committee are asked to note the report. We now go to agenda item six, Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000, RIPA. May I ask Rory McKenna to present this item? Thank you, chair. Chair, this is the standard report that the committee receive every time they meet and I can simply advise committee that RIPA has not been used between the period, well since the committee last met, but between the period March 21 and indeed January 2022. Chair, I've nothing else to add at this stage but happy to take questions. Thank you. Thanks Rory, there's no questions from the committee. The committee is asked to note the report. We move on to agenda item seven, Matters of Topical Interest, which is an opportunity for officers, auditors and members to raise any matters of topical interest and I will raise a matter of topical interest before Councillor Williams does. So I had a meeting this morning with the auditors to discuss the audit but also to discuss how they could support the audit committee going forward and looking at development and identifying gaps or recommendations so that this committee can be more effective and efficient in the work that it does in supporting the council and in that challenge to the council. So I've had a meeting, they are going to, and I propose that they come back with a recommendation and people who we contact and we get that development in place after the elections. So for the next audit committee we'll have a kickstart of here is a meeting with the auditors and then let's have a meeting with external advisers to what the accounts mean and identify the gaps of knowledge and experience within that new audit committee that comes across in May. I hope that that meets your requirements. Thank you, Chair. I joked earlier that nine months is the average pregnancy. Councillor Cohn has had two children since I first asked for us to have access to the toolkit. So please see that there has been progress on that. It's a shame that it's not this side but yes, hopefully. I do think it would be good. We had some training about the importance of challenging and how if we weren't challenging auditors and officers would be concerned if we didn't challenge at the very beginning. It's one of those that I think more support, particularly the issues we've had going forward, is very advisable. Are there any further matters arising? Would you like to raise? No. Subject to, as we discussed in the meeting, the next meeting will be held on Tuesday 29th March at 10am. Subject to completion of, satisfactory completion and signing of the accounts in February if it doesn't happen then we'll have an interim meeting at the beginning of March to understand the progress or delays. Thank you, Chairman. Thank you, everybody. I'll conclude this meeting.
