4.0 Governance and Audit Committee Meeting The Minutes of the Governance and Audit Committee meeting of 16th March 2016, as approved at the 18th May 2016 meeting are being submitted to this meeting, as required by the Committee’s Terms of Reference. Items of business considered by the Committee at its May meeting included a review of the following: Review of the draft Annual Report and Accounts 2015-16 including the Annual
Governance Statement. Review of the draft Report to the Audit Committee to those charged with governance
from External Audit. Review of the Annual Report from Internal Audit.
The Governing Body is asked to note the report from the Governance and Audit Committee. 5.0 Risk Profile Report 5.1 Strategic Risk Register (SRR) and Risk Controls Assurance Dashboard (RCAD) The SRR (Appendix A) and the RCAD (Appendix B-Red risks only) were reviewed by the Executive Team on 12th July 2016 and subsequently by the Governance and Audit Committee at its meeting on 20th July 2016. The SRR is a summary of key risks the organisation faces in delivering its objectives and is refreshed regularly to reflect changing circumstances. The RCAD enables the CCG to have an understanding of its risk profile and the controls used to mitigate those risks. 5.2 New Strategic Risk: It was proposed at the Executive Team meeting on 12th July 2016 that Strategic Risk 3 will be closed and replaced by one relating to the Sustainability and Transformation Plan (STP). Strategic Risk 3 remains on the SRR until the new risk has been developed.
5.3 Risks, Controls and Assurance Dashboard (RCAD) The RCAD enables the CCG to have an understanding of its risk profile and the effectiveness of controls to mitigate the risks. There are currently 33‡ risks on the RCAD, of which 32 risks have been assigned to the following categories. (‡ Risk 5.7, Pandemic Flu risk is currently unassigned a score as the scoring of this risk is currently being reviewed by the Executive Team).
Red Amber Yellow Green
3 17 5 7
5.4 Update: Four new risks have been added and eleven risks were closed. There are currently 3 red risks scoring 16+ (ID 1.52, 5.5, 5.8) on the RCAD and Risk 5.7, which is currently unscored, is also included. The Governing Body is asked to note the SRR and RCAD.

services by CCG directorate teams provides an early
warning of any deterioration in performance or quality
or of proposed changes in service provision that
could lead to deterioration.
2) Formal meetings with Trust, NHS TDA, NHS
England and CCG ensures CCG Chief Executive
and CFO are party to formal discussions with ENHT
and able to ensure a balanced and risk assessed
approach is taken.
3) National requirement for System Sustainability and
Transformation Plans (STP) to demonstrate financial
balance by 2020/21 forces organisation to work
together for the wider system (and patient) benefit.
• Reporting of performance and quality metrics by
Trust.
A) There is no agreed solution
to the increasing deficit being
run by ENHT and the other
acute trusts within the system.
Part of the problem is the
inceasing demand for staffing
arising from safer staffing
guidance against a backdrop of
reduced supply leading to
premium costs being paid for
staff.

Strategic Risk 6:
Financial Sustainability of Providers in the Health Economy - Department of Health's departmental expenditure limit could be breached unless acute trust deficits (nationally and locally) are reduced. Deficit reduction might be attempted by driving down costs and
staffing, which could impact on performance and/or the quality of services; or by increasing national prices and/or topslicing CCG funds, leading to cost pressures for CCGs nationally and ENHCCG too. In response ENHCCG would have to restrict investment and/or
reduce services to achieve its financial plan.

Strategic Risk 7:
As a result of a shortage of appropriately skilled staff there is a risk that the CCG will not be able to effectively commission new services or provide existing services which could result in diminished services and poor outcomes for patients and
failure to deliver core services.

5.7 If the CCG is not sufficiently
prepared for Pandemic Flu there
is a risk that if pandemic flu
occurs delivery of essential
services could be compromised
resulting in poor outcomes for
patients.
Relevant Information: Based on
our understanding of previous
pandemics, a pandemic is likely
to occur in one or more waves,
possibly weeks or months apart.
Each wave may last between 12-
15 weeks. Up to half the
population could be affected. All
ages may be affected, but until
the virus emerges we cannot
know which groups will be most
at risk.
Sharn Elton Sharn Elton SR1 16/03/2016 5/4 1) Major Incident Plan in place for CCG.
2) Incident Coordination Centre (ICC) Action Plan for CCG.
3) Business Continuity Plan
- Business Impact Assessments (BIA)
4) Regular exercises and training for staff
5) Hertfordshire pandemic plan
6) NHS England Midlands and East Pandemic Influenza
Concept of operations (Draft)
7) Communication with patients via services such as 111 and
routing of patients to appropriate medical treatment. Medical
advice provided nationally to 111 and other communication
hubs by NHS England/DoH
8) Public Health notifications via NHS England. Other Global
Pandemic Flu Surveillance systems such as those provided by
WHO may provide early alert of Pandemic Flu.
9) If vaccine available, vaccinate key personnel (vaccine may
not be available or only available in limited quantities early on in
the pandemic)
1) to 4) CCG EPPR self
assessment, assurance
with full compliance rating
by NHS England
1) to 4) Emergency
planning and business
continuity advisors (Oskan
Edwardson & Ian
Croscan) provide subject
matter expert advice.
5) Assurance on
Hertfordshire plan signed
off by LHRP March 2016
6) Regional EPRR lead
attends LHRP
7) Business Continuity
arrangements written into
111 contract (same is true
of all providers)
In the event of a pandemic
controls 7) 8) and 9) are
largely outside the control
or influence of the CCG.
However local resilience
of communication hubs
such as 111 require
business continuity plans
for these services.7)
A) Scientific Summary of
Pandemic Influenza and
its mitigation by DoH
(2011) suggests that
issues relating to staff
absenteeism related to
willingness to work are
very likely. In a severe
pandemic only a minority
of staff may be willing to
work.
B) Alignment BIA across
CCG to support BCP
N/A N/A N/A 5/4 5/4 ? A) Scope the impact of developing
agile working for frontline e.g.
laptops, VPN access from home
and conference call
capability/information sharing
software and infrastructure. This
would also support the development
of our business continuity resilience

loss of building etc. Review the need
for access to PPE for patient facing
staff.

5.8 There is a national shortage of

People who need an admission
for a mental health crisis. This is
commissioned by NHS England
Specialised Commissioning but
has a knock on impact on local
areas as children wait longer than

RISK SCORING MATRIX
Strategic Objectives:
SO1: To commission safe and appropriate healthcare services.
SO2: To commission effective services that enhances the well-
being of our residents within the available resources.
SO3: To engender a culture of engagement in the decision making
processes amongst partners and stakeholders to ensure
ownership of service priorities.
SO4: To build an organisation with the capacity and capability to
deliver agreed service priorities.
Strategic Risks:
SR1: Failure of the CCG to ensure delivery of safe, high quality and effectives services from appropriately commissioned providers.
SR2: Failure to establish an adequate and appropriate commissioning plan that is informed by member practices.
SR3: Inability to achieve engagement/buy-in from our external stakeholders to ensure appropriate collaboration in developing plans that manage,
meet and maintain their expectations.
SR4: Failure of the CCG to manage the financial budget and meet its financial target.
SR5: Failure to implement key work streams to ensure delivery of the CCG’s strategic plan.
SR6: Financial Sustainability of Providers in the Health Economy - Depatment of Health's departmental expenditure limit could be breached
unless acute trust deficits (nationally and locally) are reduced. Deficit reduction might be attempted by driving down costs and staffing, which
could impact on performance and/or the quality of services; or by increasing national prices and/or topclicing CCG funds, leading to cost
pressures for CCGs nationally and ENHCCG too. In response ENHCCG would have to restrict investment and/or reduce services to achieve its
financial plan.
