Minutes:

The Risk Continuity and Compliance Manager presented the regular report of the Director of Resources which provided an update on the Council’s risk management arrangements and areas of risk management focus for the following year. The report was against the backdrop of government reports about the Council’s performance and noted risk management training for all Members in January 2022 and that the Committee had a risk sub-group which had been looking at risk appetite.

 

Members queried details in the report which established:

·  A flowchart to show how the Corporate Risk Register was assembled would be shared with Members

·  There were Directorate Risk Registers with detail about service-specific risks

·  The scores were after the noted mitigation actions

·  There were financial and operational risks different ways with using agency staff compared to recruitment

·  Risk analysis was subjective

·  The scoring system followed best practice

 

Resolved – That the report be noted.
