What is the corporate risk register?

This is the register of the most significant risks to the overall success of our objectives, the vitality and viability of the organisation.

We capture risks through a consistent approach to identifying, assessing, prioritising and mitigating risk, as well as a risk hierarchy.

Throughout the year, risks are:

  • considered by directorate management boards
  • challenged by the senior management board (SMB)
  • scrutinised by the audit committee
  • presented to cabinet panel quarterly.

An annual report on risk management is also presented to the audit committee to provide assurance of best practice.
