The change to GP7.1 enables Council Officers to use secure, electronic means for reviewing and approving invoices for payment. This will allow for more timely processing than the previous in-person /courier methods.
- reducing the 2022 Continuing Competence Program Audit to 10% random sample of registrants
By reducing to auditing 10% of registrants, the audit team will be able to do a more in-depth review of each registrant’s audit records. This will result in more meaningful feedback to the registrants to encourage more effective participation.
