That:

1)         the Enterprise Risk Management Policy and Guidance be noted; and

2)        the Constitution Review Working Group be recommended to consider amending the Terms of Reference of the Audit Committee as set out in the report.

The Executive considered a report relating to a proposed Enterprise Risk Management Policy and supporting guidance which would provide the framework for sustaining effective management of risk at the Council.

Members were informed by the Executive Member for Resident Services that under the Council’s Constitution there was an obligation to take the Enterprise Risk Management Policy and Guidance to Executive every year whether or not changes were proposed.  It was therefore proposed, in according with the Audit Committee’s wishes, to ask the Constitution Review Working Group to consider amending the Constitution in order that the document only needed to be reviewed by the Executive if changes were put forward.

RESOLVED That:

1)         the Enterprise Risk Management Policy and Guidance be noted; and

2)        the Constitution Review Working Group be recommended to consider amending the Terms of Reference of the Audit Committee as set out in the report.
