~| |Risk and Internal
Control (Specimen 1)
The Group Executive Committee
has identified the major
risks to which they believe the Group is exposed, these hav
been reviewed
and systems have been established
to
mitigate against them. The main areas ofconcern
that have| |been identified are:| |Damage tothe building,
property and equipment.
The Group
would request the use of buildings,
property
and equipment
from neighbouring
organisations
such as the church,
community
centre and other Scout Groups. Similar
reciprocal arrangements
exist with these organisations.
The
Group has sufficient buildings
and contents insurance
in
place to mitigate against permanent
loss.| |injury to leaders, helpers, supporters
and members. The
Group through
the capitation fees contributes
to the Scout
Associations
national accident insurance
policy. Risk
Assessments
are undertaken
before all activities.| |Reduced income from fund raising. The Group Is primarily
reliant upon income from subscriptlons
and fundraising
The
group does hold a reserve to ensure the continuity of
activities should there be a major reduction
in income. The
Committee
could raise the value ofsubscriptions
to increase
the income to the group on an ongoing basis, either| |temporarily
or permanently,| |Reduction or loss ofleaders. The group is totally reliant upon
volunteers
to run and administer
the activities ofthe group
If
there was a reduction
in the number ofleaders to an
unacceptable
level in a particular
section or the group as a
whole then there would have to be a contraction,
consolidation
or closure ofa section. In the worst case
scenario the complete closure of the Group.| |Reduction
or loss of members.
The Group provides activities
or all young people aged 6to 18.Ifthere was a reduction
