Report of the Managing Director

The Managing Director submitted a report (previously circulated) on the progress and planned developments of the information governance programme.

It was reported that information governance remains an ‘above the line’ risk on the Corporate Risk Register, however delivery of the programme would provide the assurance required and would reduce the information risks to an acceptable level.

The submitted report outlined the most recent work undertaken, together with those areas of highest priority within the programme, with particular reference made to the delivery of the compliance programme for General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR).

General discussion ensued on the on-line mandatory information governance training and whether this should also be mandatory for Council Members.

RESOLVED – That the progress on the implementation of the Information Governance Programme be noted.
