Minutes:

Background:

 

This report provided details of the latest review of the Council’s Corporate Business Risk Register and included three proposals from the Council’s Management Team to downgrade risks in relation to SR17 - Delivering Regeneration; SR19 - Downturn in the Economy and SR22 – Treasury Management.

 

The Business Support Overview and Scrutiny Committee considered this report on 19 March 2014 and recommended that SR19 - Downturn in the Economy be regraded at C2, rather than the original proposal to regrade at E2, to link with that of the proposed regrading to C2 of SR17 Delivering Regeneration.

 

The Portfolio Holder for Finance and Deputy Leader paid tribute to Joy Kirby who had recently retired for her work on risk management over the years.
