Issue - meetings

          The Board considered a report of the Strategic Director, Community and Resources, on the review and update of the Corporate Risk Register 2016/17.

          The Board was advised that the Council recognised its responsibility to manage both internal and external risks as a key component of good corporate governance. 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, in line with Directorate Business Plans. Progress was then reported to Management Team and the Policy and Performance Boards.

          It was reported that the Risk Control Measures had been reviewed and updated in line with current changes within the Authority. The risks had been grouped in order of priority, as detailed in Appendix 1, attached to the report.

          RESOLVED: That the Corporate Risk Register and comments raised be noted.
