Issue - meetings

The Board considered a report of the Strategic Director, Enterprise, Community and Resources, which provided a progress update of actions in the Corporate Risk Register 2017/18.

          The report contained a progress commentary on the management and mitigation of the corporate risk register for the year.

          The Board reviewed the robustness of the Corporate Risk Register and the adequacy of the associated risk management arrangements. It was reported that at Directorate level, arrangements were in place for the high-risk mitigation measures on the Directorate Risk Registers to be reviewed and updated at mid-year. Progress on these was reported to Management Team and to relevant Policy and Performance Boards.

          Following a discussion by Members, it was agreed that a direction of travel indicator be included in future updates to enable the Board to better consider the risks where there had been significant changes to scoring. In addition, a report would be brought to the Board on how the Council was responding to the General Data Protection Regulations, due to be introduced in 2018.

          RESOLVED: That the progress on actions be noted.
