This report set out details of a 6-month review of the Council’s corporate business risk register.

 

The Council’s corporate business risk register, which was last reviewed by Cabinet in October 2012, had been reviewed by ‘risk owners’ and the Corporate Management Team and the report set out a number of proposed amendments.

 

It was reported that the Business Support Overview and Scrutiny Committee had considered this report on 3 April 2013 and its additional suggested changes were set out in section 5 of the report. It was noted that the Chair of the Strategic Risk Management Group supported the Committee’s proposals.

Reasons:

 

The establishment of a corporate framework for risk management was recommended by CIPFA and SOLACE and would complement and support the work already being carried out within each directorate to manage risks.
