Agenda item

The Senior Strategy and Performance Officer presented their report for Members to review the digital Progress report of the Authority Plan and to provide Members with the year-end update of the FY25/26 and start of FY 26/27 Corporate Risk Register. 

There were no updates since the report was circulated.

The following areas were discussed: -

•         Some risk factors are not within the control of the Authority.  How were these mitigated and what capacity did the Authority have to manage those risks.  Some risks are grouped together and the level of capacity to manage is indicated.  Risk management was through advocacy, engagement and data sharing. Controls and mitigation are set out in the appendix to the report.

•         National infrastructure proposals could present a long-term risk which the Senior Strategy and Performance Officer would log for consideration on the Risk Register.

The recommendation as set out in the report was moved, seconded, put to the vote and carried.

1. The digital Authority Progress Plan Report (Decile 6) 2025/26 is approved.
