Governance

A number of key PHA staff are instrumental in taking forward governance issues, including a Senior Operations Manager, a Chief Executive Office and Committee Manager and a Governance Manager. 

A risk management process and risk register is in place, ensuring the management and reporting of risk at both directorate and corporate level. The corporate risk register is brought on a regular basis to the Agency Management Team and the Governance and Audit Committee.

A suite of IT security policies have been developed and implemented, building on the information governance policies already in place.
