|**Section B**|**Structure, governance and management (continued)**|
|---|---|
||**Risk and Internal Control**<br>The Group Executive Committee has identified the major<br>risks to which they believe the Group is exposed, these have<br>been reviewed and systems have been established to<br>mitigate against them. The main areas of concern that have<br>been identified are:<br>Damage to the building, property and equipment. The Group<br>would request the use of buildings, property and equipment<br>from neighbouring organisations such as the church,<br>community centre and other Scout Groups. Similar<br>reciprocal arrangements exist with these organisations. The<br>Group has sufficient buildings and contents insurance in<br>place to mitigate against permanent loss.<br>Injury to leaders, helpers, supporters and members. The<br>Group through the capitation fees contributes to the Scout<br>Associations national accident insurance policy. Risk<br>Assessments are undertaken before all activities.<br>Reduced income from fund raising. The Group is primarily<br>reliant upon income from subscriptions and fundraising. The<br>group does hold a reserve to ensure the continuity of<br>activities should there be a major reduction in income. The<br>Committee could raise the value of subscriptions to increase<br>the income to the group on an ongoing basis, either<br>temporarily or permanently.<br>Reduction or loss of leaders. The group is totally reliant upon<br>volunteers to run and administer the activities of the group. If<br>there was a reduction in the number of leaders to an<br>unacceptable level in a particular section or the group as a<br>whole then there would have to be a contraction,<br>consolidation or closure of a section. In the worst case<br>scenario the complete closure of the Group.<br>Reduction or loss of members. The Group provides activities<br>for all young people aged 6 to 18. If there was a reduction in<br>membership in a particular section or the group as whole<br>then there would have to be a contraction, consolidation or<br>closure of a section. In the worst case scenario the complete<br>closure of the Group.<br>**Risk and Internal Control**<br>The group has in place systems of internal controls that are<br>designed to provide reasonable assurance against material<br>mismanagement or loss, these include 2 signatories for all<br>payments and a comprehensive insurance policies to ensure<br>that insurable risks are covered.|
