Process of Review

The Office of the Surrey Police and Crime Commissioner (OPCC) and Surrey Police, together with the Sussex OPCC and Sussex Police, have recently undertaken the annual review of all Governance documentation to ensure that it is up to date and fit for purpose. Proposed amendments were reported to the Joint Audit Committee who considered and commented on the adequacy of the Scheme before recommending its approval by the PCC.

All of the documents within the Scheme of Governance have been updated in line with CIPFA guidelines and recommended good practice.

The revised Scheme has now been published and work has been initiated to ensure that the documents are properly disseminated throughout the organisation. ____________________________________________________________
