To receive the Chairman’s announcements.
Minutes:
The Chairman drew the Members’ attention to two items of note.
SAP Post Implementation Review
Members will recollect from our June meeting two actions relating to the financial management system - SAP. The post-programme implementation review (or PIR) and the request for a paper on the cultural issues associated with SAP implementation.
I would like to inform the committee that KPMG have commenced an independent piece of work addressing both actions. This will be completed during October and reported to our next Audit Committee in December.
