It was issued with the appropriate amendments 11th May 2021.  \n2 INTRODUCTION  \nThe Parish Council’s operations and assets are affected by a wide range of internal and external factors that make their operating environments uncertain. These factors create uncertainty as to whether, and to what extent the Parish Council’s objectives can be met. The effect this uncertainty has on the achievement of the Parish Council’s objectives is known as ‘risk’.  \nThis policy is aligned with ISO 31001.  \n2.1 PURPOSE  \nThe purpose of this policy is to establish the arrangements such that the Parish Council can effectively identify, and control risks associated with its operations and assets.  \n2.2 SCOPE  \nThis policy applies to:  \n􀀁 All activities associated with the operations of the Parish Council.  \n􀀁 The assets owned by the Parish Council.  \n3 ROLES & RESPONSIBILITES  \nThis process requires the following roles and responsibilities:  \n\n| Parish Councillors | The Parish Councillors are responsible for:\u003Cbr>􀀁 Approving the Risk Log annually.\u003Cbr>􀀁 Approving additions or changes to the Risk Log. |\n| --- | --- |\n| Parish Clerk: | The Parish Clerk is responsible for:\u003Cbr>􀀁 Owning and maintaining the Risk Log;\u003Cbr>􀀁 Monitoring risks and the implementation of new controls;\u003Cbr>􀀁 Highlighting changes to risks to Parish Councillors;\u003Cbr>􀀁 Undertaking and presenting an annual review of the Risk Log to Parish Councillors. |\n\n4 THE PROCESS  \nThis section describes how this Risk Management Policy shall be implemented.  \nThe Parish Council shall maintain a Risk Log that records all risks identified by the following steps. Additions or modifications to the Risk Log must be approved by the Parish Council. The approved Risk Log template is provided in Section 6.  \nSWINDON PARISH COUNCIL Page 1 of 5  \nRISK MANAGEMENT POLICY  \n4.1 IDENTIFYING THE RISK  \nRisks can be identified at any time by Parish Councillors, the Parish Clerk or members of the public. A short description of the risk should be added to the Risk Log. The Risk Description should identify:  \n􀀁 The source the risk;  \n􀀁 The cause of the risk;  \n􀀁 How the risk could be realised;  \nThe impact of the risk should also be described in the Risk Log. The impact types could include, but are not limited to:  \n􀀁 Financial Loss: the risk, if realised, results in unplanned expenditure by the Parish Council;  \n􀀁 Reputational: the risk, if realised, could bring the Parish Council into disrepute;  \n􀀁 Legal: the risk, if realised, results in legal proceeding against the Parish Council;  \n􀀁 Security: the risk, if realised, results in security incident.  \n􀀁 Organisational: the risk, if realised, could stop the Parish Council from undertaking its intended functions;  \n􀀁 Miscellaneous: risks that do not full within the other categories.  \nAt least one of these impact types should be included in the impact column of the Risk Log. Risks may have more than one impact type. The Impact column should include a short description.  \n4.2 ANALYSING THE RISK  \nOnce the risk has been identified, the risk should be analysed. This includes:  \n􀀁 Identifying any existing controls that effectively mitigate the risk;  \n􀀁 Determining the likelihood of the risk occurring;  \n􀀁 Ranking the impact of the risk should it occur;  \n􀀁 Calculating the overall Risk Rating.  \nThe Parish Clerk is responsible for analysing the risk and presenting the draft risk analysis to the Parish Council for approval.  \n4.2.1 Identify Existing Controls  \nExisting controls are any pre-existing process, policy, device, practice or other action that acts to minimise the negative impact of the risk. In some circumstances existing controls may be adequate to effectively mitigate the risk. Relevant existing controls should be listed in the Existing Control Measures column of","cbCairbmKFg1LZM3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairbmKFg1LZM3","pdf",56718,"English","# Document information\n# Introduction\n## Purpose\n## Scope\n# Roles & responsibilities\n# The process\n## Identifying the risk\n## Analysing the risk\n### Identify existing controls\n### Determine the likelihood\n### Assess the impact","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of Swindon Parish Council’s Risk Management Policy?\",\"answer\":\"It sets out arrangements so the Parish Council can effectively identify and control risks related to its operations and assets.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is responsible for maintaining and reviewing the Risk Log?\",\"answer\":\"The Parish Clerk owns and maintains the Risk Log, monitors risks and new controls, highlights changes, and presents an annual review for Parish Councillors.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the policy analyse and score a risk?\",\"answer\":\"After identification, the risk is analysed by identifying existing controls, scoring likelihood (1–5), ranking impact (1–5), and calculating an overall Risk Rating.\"}]","Risk Management Policy - Swindon Parish Council - Risk assessment and control process | PDF"]
