Report of the Chamberlain.

The Committee considered a report of the Chamberlain, which provided Members with an update on the corporate and top red departmental risk registers, following review by the Chief Officer Risk Management Group (CORMG) and the Summit Group. 

Members suggested that, for future reports, a new appendix be included identifying new risks, risks which where target dates had been missed (or worsened) or removed from the corporate risk register. However, Members were also mindful of risks staying red for too long and officers agreed to feed this back to CORMG.

Members agreed that the Committee’s role in determining the inclusion of risks on to the corporate risk register was to “endorse” and not to “confirm” the decision of the Summit Group.

In respect of an issue raised during today’s Risk Challenge Session, the Chairman reminded Members that the City Surveyor would be invited back to a further session, focussing on operational buildings and his desk top audit, rather than property investment (which had been the subject of his last session). 

RESOLVED, That:

1.         The addition of CR25 (GDPR Project Risk) be added to the Corporate Risk Register.

2.         The other changes to both the corporate and top red departmental risk registers, as outlined in the report, be noted.
