Leading Council and Committee Procedure Teams
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers ethics in the public service and annual reporting from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because officials are held personally accountable under legislation many have never been trained on, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with audit action planning, intergovernmental relations and public finance management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring audit action planning into line with current good practice, measured against the Batho Pele principles
- Make a decision about intergovernmental relations without waiting for a specialist
- Explain public finance management to someone who does not do the work
- Spot where integrated development planning is failing before it becomes a finding
