Issue - meetings

This report updates councillors on the position of the council’s Corporate Risk Register. The main updates are as follows:

The comprehensive review of the Corporate Risk Register including the incorporation of the COVID-19 risks.

The Risk and Insurance Manager presented a report, a copy of which had been circulated to each Member and a copy of which appears as Appendix 'E' to these Minutes in the Minute Book.

The report provided an update for the Committee on the BCP Council Corporate Risk Register and in particular the comprehensive review of the Risk Register to incorporate the COVID-19 risks and to reflect the whole BCP Council picture within a single plan.

Members were reminded of the Committee’s specific contribution through a useful workshop session held during the summer and the issues highlighted then had now been incorporated. The register would now need to be reviewed again to reflect the second phase of the pandemic. The importance of setting out clearly the identified mitigation measures for each risk was underlined

RESOLVED that the Audit and Governance Committee note the update provided in relation to the Corporate Risk Register.
