The risk registers were introduced in my Department in 2005 as part of its risk management policy and are related to the key tasks to be carried out by this Department. The policy was developed to ensure that appropriate actions are taken by management throughout the organisation to identify and manage effectively the risks to which the organisation may be exposed. The registers seek to identify and assess the potential strategic, operational, financial and reputational risks facing the Department and to outline controls and measures to minimise such risks. The risk register is updated on an annual basis and controls are implemented on an on-going basis. FÁS was included on the risk register in those years to ensure that relevant risks were identified and controls and measures identified to minimise those risks.
