Agenda item

The items were introduced by Senior Strategy Officer.  New for 2018/19 are three categories which are:

·         Outcome/Delivery Risks

·         Reputational Risks

·         Financial Risks

Risks can span more than one of the three above categories.

Members considered the report on the year end position of the 2017/18 Corporate Risk Register and the proposed Corporate Risk Register for 2018/19.

Members requested clarification on inclusion of the 25 Year Environment Plan, it seemed premature to include this at such an early stage of the Plan. Officers considered that it was important to highlight the Plan because of its importance to future plans.

Members raised concerns regarding the influence of the changes of legislation caused by withdrawal from the EU.  Officers explained that EU legislation would become British Legislation over the coming years and would then be reviewed by Defra. 

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

RESOLVED:

That the Corporate Risk Register 2018/19, as given in Appendix 1 of the report, be reviewed and approved, taking account of the year end position on the 2017/18 Corporate Risk Register 2017/18 as given in Appendix 2 of the report.
