Decision details

The Director of Resources submitted a report providing an update on the most significant risks currently on the Council’s corporate risk register and which presented a summary of assurances describing the key controls in place to manage those risks and any further actions planned.

Responding to a specific enquiry, the Board received further detail regarding the prevalence of cyber-attacks upon the Council and the actions which continued to be taken to mitigate the risks that such attacks posed.

Again, responding to a specific request, officers undertook to contact Councillor A Carter in order to schedule briefings with him on the Council’s risk management processes.

RESOLVED – That the Annual Corporate Risk Management report, as appended to the submitted report, be noted, together with the assurances provided on the most significant corporate risks, in line with the Council’s Risk Management Policy and Strategy and the Board’s overarching responsibility for their management.
