Report of the Town Clerk.

The Committee considered a report of the Town Clerk which set out outstanding actions from previous meetings of the Committee.

A Member asked officers to ensure that the information security risk encompassed all forms of information, hitherto, the focus had been on keeping data stored on local drives and shared via email safe; it was important, however, to keep other materials, including hardcopy paper reports, secure. The Member asked officers to ensure that the relevant Committees and Sub-Committees were taking responsibility for this. The Deputy Chairman pointed out that the Digital Services Sub-Committee had overarching responsibility for the information security risk. He proposed that the DSSC review its Terms of Reference with a view to proposing changes in due course.

Turning to the internal charging pilot, the Chairman reemphasised that the software needed to be adaptable for other departments.   

RESOLVED – That the Committee notes the report.
