Background:
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 had last been reviewed by Cabinet in November 2009, 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 16 March 2010 and its recommendations concerning the waste contract and additional narrative where a risk’s rating had been increased, were set out.

54/2010 |
The Cabinet approved the amendments to the Council's Risk register as detailed in Section 3 of the report and set out in Appendix B to the report and agreed to delegate authority to the Director of Regeneration, Community and Culture to incorporate, within the risk register, the risk of a potential legal challenge to the waste contract and additional narrative where a risk’s rating had been increased. |
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.
