Background:

This report provided details of the six monthly review of the Council’s Corporate Business Risk Register. It was noted that since the last review, risk owners had reviewed their risks and amendments were recommended to SR27 (Government changes to Local Authority’s responsibility for schools), SR29 (Transition to a new provider for Mental Health Social Care Services) and SR30 (Delivering Better for Less transformation).

The Business Support Overview and Scrutiny Committee had considered this report on 21 March 2012 and its views and recommendations were set out in paragraph 5 of the report.

Reasons:

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