Internal Audit

Our arrangements for Internal Audit operate jointly with the Constabulary.  Internal Audits are delivered for the Commissioner and Chief Constable through a shared service with Cumbria County Council.

Internal Audit operates within the framework of an Internal Audit Charter.  A risk based Annual Audit Plan delivers assurance to the Commissioner and Chief Constable that arrangements for governance and internal controls are operating effectively and enables the Chief Internal Auditor to deliver her Annual Audit Opinion.
