Agenda item

Simon Geikie, the Senior Strategy and Performance Officer presented the report to Members which had been reviewed and revised following the Authority organisational changes.

One additional amendment was made to the presented document to include the “Monitoring Officer” in the list of roles documented on Page 18, just above paragraph 6. 

Members asked for clarification on some items of Appendix 1 and what the responsibilities regarding the tone, influence and culture should be for risk going forward. It was noted that the register comes to Members twice a year for further scrutiny and for officers to share the technical detail with Members.

The process of cascading risks and the escalation process was explained along with the process of quarterly reporting.

The recommendation as amended was moved, seconded, voted on and carried.

RESOLVED:

That Members formally approved the updated Risk Management Policy.
