Risk Management Update

Report of the Chamberlain

Minutes:

The Sub Committee considered a report of the Chamberlain providing an

overview of the management of risks faced by City Procurement.

 

In response to comments and questions from Members, Officers advised that

 

·         The main concern was resourcing capacity and budget pressures and although the projected overspend advised at July committee of £187k had been reduced to £100k for item 7, there was still pressure to hold vacant posts to offset this position. 

·         Officers apologised for not updating the dates in appendices.

·         City Accelerate had not generated the expected income levels and Officers were reviewing whether to continue with this offer.

·         The recruitment moratorium was impacting on the delivery of certain projects and some projects would be delayed as it was not possible to recruit the right calibre staff.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
