Report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection.

The Committee considered a report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection updating Members on satisfactory measures in place to meet the requirements of the Corporate Risk Management Framework.

Officers reported that

·       Risk MCP-PHPP001 - Brexit impact on Port Health had been deleted as this was no longer relevant to the Markets Committee.

·       Risk MCP-BG 001 - Workplace Traffic Management Billingsgate had been increased to “Amber.”

·       Risk MCP-SM008 - Fire Alarm Panel Performance Smithfield was flagged up as ongoing.

RESOLVED – That the report and the actions taken by the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection to monitor and manage risk effectively be noted.

Report of the Director of Markets and Consumer Protection.

The Committee had before them the report by the DMCP on Markets Committee Risk and the following matters were raised.

·         In response to concerns expressed by a Member that there had been no change in reported risk relating to unloading operations at Smithfield, the DMCP commented that the market is in a congested area and the risk had been reduced from red to moderate amber. The DMCP confirmed his view that risk would be likely to remain in this area whatever measures were put in place, but was managed in an appropriate way. The Chairman asked that officers report back to the Committee with an ‘ongoing thought process’ to reduce this risk.
