Public Audit Committee
The 2020/21 audit of South Lanarkshire College
Background
On 21 April 2022, the Auditor General for Scotland published the 2020/21 audit of South Lanarkshire College.
The report says:
"The auditor has been unable to conclude that governance arrangements in South Lanarkshire College were satisfactory for the 2020/21 year and to the point of signing their opinion on 24 March 2022. The governance statement in the college’s annual report and accounts recognises that the college has not fully complied with the standards set out in the Code of Good Governance for Scotland’s Colleges."
