Resolution number APP/2019/63 MOVED by Mayor P Goff, seconded by Cr D Simpson: That the Appointments, Performance Review and Value for Money Committee: a) agree to recommend to the Governing Body that the council’s chief executive collaborates with the chief executives of the council-controlled organisations to:
i) develop and implement a group assessment of risk by: A) developing a framework for combining the same or similar risks identified by each organisation into a cumulative group risk B) determining the most effective way to treat cumulative risk – either as a group or as individual organisations – and whether a portion of the risk should be insured C) reporting the cumulative group risk to the Audit and Risk Committee on a quarterly basis ii) build a business case to improve legal operational efficiency A) determining and understanding the current gaps impacting efficiency B) identifying and evaluating a range of options (largely technology) which will close the identified gaps and complete the approved business case iii) adopt a more strategic approach to insurance A) understanding the risks the group faces and the strength of the group balance sheet to manage that risk B) assessing current insurance cover against our risk profile to: 1) purchase insurance only when events have potential to materially and adversely impact council’s credit rating 2) insure key assets that materially affect service delivery and the group balance sheet 3) apply meaningful deductibles consistent with balance sheet capacity ($52 billion in assets) and risk appetite. |
