The Chief Executive introduced a report which provided a high-level overview of the strategic approach to risk management.

The four box model within the report was used for the identification and escalation of emerging risks at the correct stage.  Examples of risks from the current Council Plan were also set out.  A full report on the updated Risk Management Strategy would be scheduled for the next meeting.

Councillor Dunbar referred to the example on the Homelessness Strategy to which the Chief Executive gave a brief update on a range of initiatives including supported housing solutions.

RESOLVED:

(a)       That the Committee is assured by the Council’s strategic approach to the management of risk; and
