Purpose

To provide an update on the status of
corporate risks at the end of Quarter 1 2025/26 (June 2025) and
provide assurance that risks are being managed effectively across
the council

Decision

That Cabinet:
 
a) Approves the updates to the Corporate Risk
Register and actions to mitigate identified risks at Quarter 1
2025/26.
 
b) Notes the activity to embed the revised
risk management strategy to strengthen risk management activity
across the council at Corporate, Directorate and Service
levels.

Alternative options considered

Cabinet may choose not to review the
council’s corporate risks. This is not recommended as risk
management is an integral part of the council’s governance
arrangements and decision-making processes and is fundamental to
the successful delivery of strategic objectives
