Minutes:

Members considered a report which informed of the progress made by the Insurance service during 2007/08.

 

Members were asked to consider the uninsured risk exposures contained at Paragraph 10 and whether insurance cover should be procured. The report advised that with the increasing number of domestic terrorism incidents and the move to Hungate providing a higher profile target Members, as part of this report, might again wish to consider whether they wished to procure this type of cover. The risk remained low at this time and any decision could be again reviewed prior to the move to Hungate.

 

Members highlighted that there had been theft from other council properties besides schools, including from the Mansion House. Officers reported that unless these thefts had been reported to them they would not be aware of them happening and it was difficult to obtain this information.
