Audit of Council Community Grant and Event Funding Programs

⁠⁠⁠The Victorian Auditor General’s Office released its audit report Fraud Control over Local Government Grants in May 2022. This audit examined whether six nominated local councils had effective controls for their grant programs to prevent fraud and give their communities confidence that public money is spent as intended. The audit made nine recommendations to all Victorian councils about strengthening fraud controls and improving guidance and training for grant related fraud.
The Alpine Shire Council is seeking quotations from suitably qualified and experienced auditors to provide a review of Council’s grant and funding programs:
• Community Grants
• Event Funding
