MPA Risk Management update
Report: 9
Date: 10 March 2011
By: Chief Executive
Summary
The report summarises the development of the MPA risk management process and includes the current MPA corporate risk register.
A. Recommendation
That members consider and comment on the MPA risk register.
B. Supporting information
1. The risk register, attached at Appendix 1 contains the MPA current assessment of risks to the delivery of its objectives under Met Forward.
2. The register has been recently been updated and reviewed. In particular it now reflects the action being taken to manage the potential risks around the abolition of the MPA and the implementation of the new governance arrangements for policing prior to the abolition. A separate risk register is also being developed for the MOPC implementation programme.
3. The corporate risk register is regularly reviewed by the MPA Senior Management Team (SMT) and Business Management Group (BMG). Key emerging risks and issues are reported by the heads of business units and reviewed by BMG at its fortnightly meetings. Appropriate action is agreed and monitored on an ongoing basis by the MPA SMT and BMG and risks are added to the corporate register as appropriate.
C. Other organisational and community implications
Equality and Diversity Impact
1. Equality impact assessments will be conducted for each strand of Met Forward and for all MPA policies supporting the risk management process Equality and diversity risks are integrated and evaluated as part of the overall assessment of key risks.
Consideration of Met Forward
2. Risk assessment forms an integral part of the performance management framework established for the delivery of Met Forward. Any risk to the delivery of the strands of Met Forward is included in the analysis of the emerging risks.
Financial Implications
3. An assessment of financial risks is undertaken as part of the annual budget submission cycle and is reported to the Finance and Resources Committee. A more detailed analysis of financial risk was presented to the last Corporate Governance committee. The cost of developing and maintaining control measures is included in the budgeted work plans for each business unit in the MPA.
Legal Implications
