Issue - meetings

To receive an update on the Corporate Risk Register.

The Audit & Governance Lead Manager gave an update on the Corporate Risk Register which had previously been presented in January 2023.  It acted as a reminder on the identified potential risks for the Council in relation to services provided and gave details of the risks, how they were identified and their rationale. Details of individual risks, their score and importance, together with any actions required were contained within the report. The register was reviewed quarterly by the Senior Management Team and then presented to the Audit Committee.

Members commented on the extensive amount and variety of risks on the Register and noted how it changed regularly.  Members asked if there were any further updates on the recent cyber security case.  Members praised the officers for their work on the risk register and ensuring that risk is kept at a minimum.

Officers confirmed that there were no further updates on the case at the present time but any relevant information would be presented to Members as a formal update. 

RESOLVED – that the contents of the Corporate Risk Register included as Appendix A, be noted.
