Finance, Audit & Remuneration Committee
The Finance, Audit and Remuneration Committee (FAR) has delegated authority from the AV天堂 Board to oversee the financial administration and resourcing of AV天堂 and the academies within it. The committee’s purpose is to allow more detailed consideration to be given to the best means of fulfilling the board’s responsibility to ensure sound management of AV天堂's finances and resources, including proper planning, monitoring of risks, internal scrutiny and probity.
The board has delegated the powers necessary to oversee the financial administration and resourcing of AV天堂 to the FAR Committee. The FAR Committee must report back to the trust board on the exercise of its powers, and for the avoidance of doubt, the board retains the power to make any final decisions in relation to financial expenditure by AV天堂.
Each committee’s terms of reference ensures it is representative of DfE guidance and the Academy Trust Handbook.
