Decision

That the Council’s strategic risks, as at the end of quarter 4 2022/23, be noted.

Reasons for the Decision

An update of the Strategic Risk Register developed under the risk management approach of ‘risk appetite’, was last presented Members in February 2023 and contained twelve strategic risks.

Since reporting to Members in February, the Strategic Risk Register had been refreshed and updated by the Risk Owners and Corporate Management Team and had identified that there had been some positive movement in the Risk Register along with the addition of a new, emerging risk.

The mitigations and control actions for each risk were detailed in the officer’s report.

The updated Register was considered within Part B of this agenda, it contained thirteen strategic risks.
