Minutes:
Further to Minute No. 22 of 9 September 2019, the Committee considered the report of the Head of Corporate Resources on the updated Corporate Risk Register, indicating that since the last meeting the Corporate Risk Register had been fully updated with no new risks identified or escalated from the service risk registers and no changes in the risk scores.
The Committee also considered the Corporate Risk Management Handbook which had also been updated to include a revised scoring assessment and was presented for annual approval.
The Chief Internal Auditor presented the report and answered questions thereon.
Arising from discussion, Members indicated that it would be helpful if Heads of Service could be invited to future meetings of the Audit and Governance Committee where significant risks were identified in their service area. The Chief Internal Auditor indicated that he would consult with the Head of Corporate Resources on the feasibility of this suggestion. In addition Members requested that the format of the risk register be reviewed to improve the internal and external accessibility of the document.
RESOLVED: That
|
(1) |
the contents of the Corporate Risk Register, particularly the nature of the major risks facing the Council and the controls and planned actions in place to mitigate these be noted; and
|
|
(2) |
the updated Corporate Risk Management Handbook be approved. |
