John Hinton,

Dear Brian

Thanks for your enquiry. The Corporate Governance Manual was reviewed at the last Audit Committee Meeting. Because of the way we work it was considered to be more appropriate to maintain a risk register, but with responsibility for risk management devolved to the different departments and the two national centres. This arrangement is reviewed on a regular basis at meetings of the Audit Committee. It was therefore decided that there was no need to have an overall Risk Management Policy.

I hope this information is helpful.

Kind regards.

John

Dear John,

Thank you for your reply.

Without having the minutes yet in my possession for the last Audit Committee, I was naturally unaware of the outcome of agenda item 4.1.

In the circumstances, could you please let me know how Sport Wales now manages to monitor the risk of distributing public funds on an annual basis to a recognised National Governing Body with a known history of poor governance?

Yours sincerely,

Brian

John Hinton,
