To receive an update on the Corporate Risk Register for 2019/20.

The PFI and Performance Officer gave a summary of the report which presented the Council’s 2019/20 Corporate Risk Register.

In response to a Member question about the lack of a sound base for the development management function on page 46 of the agenda, the PFI and Performance Officer said he would discuss this with the Assistant Director – Planning.

Councillor Khan said he felt the Corporate Risk Register was not focused enough on reputational risk. The Investment Strategy Board was also a cause for concern, and governance might need to be more prominent in the risk register.

The Assistant Director – Corporate Services said the Corporate Management Team would need to reflect on this and then respond to Councillor Khan.

The Director – Finance and Corporate Services said the Commercial Strategy would be taken to Council on 8 October. There would be regular reports on the strategy brought to the Committee.
