Members received a report which advised of the progress which had been made to date in developing the audit and fraud shared service initiative with North Yorkshire County Council (NYCC), and to recommend a few working adjustments to the proposed scope of the shared service project (as previously set out in the original Outline Business Case). 

Members had two options to consider at this stage in the project process.  The first was to agree the minor changes to the Outline Business Case as set out in paragraphs 9-10. The second option was to leave the scope of the project unchanged. The first option was recommended.
