Decisions:

The Committee considered a report setting out an update on the overpayment of salaries to individuals who were no longer employees of the County Council and which had previously been identified by the Internal Audit Service as part of an audit of payroll.

 

It was noted that the value of overpayments, together with the average amount, had reduced significantly and that steps to further reduce the instances of overpayments were being undertaken.

 

However, the Committee requested a further report at its next meeting providing further details of the overpayments including the age profile and overpayments by service area.

(i)  The report be noted;

(ii)  A further report, as set out above, be considered by the Committee at its next meeting.
