Audit Committee

Municipal Board Chairperson Riina Aspila presents to the audit committee an overview of the municipality's current affairs from the municipal board's perspective. The audit committee is proposed to note the overview for information. This concerns regular information exchange between the municipality's different governing bodies.

The audit committee addresses the approval of the agenda and confirmation of the order of business in its meeting. This concerns a formal stage of the meeting procedure, where the matters that the committee will decide on in its meeting are proposed for approval.

The audit committee proposes continuing the preparation of the evaluation report. The evaluation report is a statutory document that assesses the effectiveness and impact of the municipality's operations. Once the report is completed, it will be submitted to the council for consideration as part of the municipality's monitoring and development.

The audit committee discusses in its meeting other matters that members and the auditor may bring up. The committee agrees on upcoming meeting dates for the spring term and possible additional meetings for preparing the evaluation report. In addition, committee members share updates from their respective monitoring responsibility areas.

The municipal council has elected a new member and vice-chairperson to the audit committee to replace Anu Pellikka (SDP), who has resigned from the position of trust. The audit committee proposes that it acknowledges the election made by the municipal council. The committee must have seven members including the chairperson, and according to the equality act, at least 40 percent of the members must be men and women.
